BACKGROUND
Recently restored a `50 Chevy 3100 (1/2 ton) Pickup. I want to keep the truck "stock" so I am looking for 4-5 "good/used" `50 Chevy Style 15"x 5"x 6 Lug, Wheel Rims that feature "6" clips to mount the Hub Caps.
I already have the Chevy Hub Caps and 6:70 / 15 / 6 ply(Coker) B.F. Goodrich whitewall tires.

QUESTION
I hope this is not a needle in a haystack search of futility. Hopefully someone has upgraded their rims and tires to Radial and no longer needs the old rims.

Drop me a note if you have any ideas:

You might as well also post a Parts Wanted ad in the Swap Meet.

If anyone has info on new wheels, they will post information here (no need to drop you a note).

Seems to me I saw some of those in a Coker Catalog I picked up at a car show in CA last summer. Can't find the catalog though!! You might try there.

Wheelsmith sells a very vintage looking new rim that is radial tire friendly AND front disc brake friendly if you ever go that route. I paid around $94 each. They sell them unpainted or you can have them powder coated. You will have to tell them you want to use your own hubcaps. They sell adapters so you can do just that. Mine are 15 inch 6 lug.
