I got the standard gray rims at a tire shop. One shop in town (Les Schwab) had rims that were too wide but were cheaper. I put two of those on the back. Another shop (our Tirerama) had the right ones in stock so I put those on the front. Of course, now I can't rotate my tires (again, feeble). I use an old split rim which fits the front for a spare.
I'm ready to rotate better tires from the D**ge to the '48 again and I'm hoping they work also.
