What is the best 16" (budd wheel) to replace the split ring wheels on my 1970 C-30?

Single or dual?

There are lots of choices, finding some you like at a junkyard might be most economical.

C-30 Dual in rear....Not as easy as you might think...There's Hub centric, back spacing, counter sunk & flat lug holes....Also the diameter if the lug stud...Just looking for the best option to transition from split rims to regular...

Look at a slightly newer GM 8 lug dual wheel truck.
You want hub centered and flat, not countersunk.

If you come get them I have 4 from a P-30 GM bread truck step van and you're welcome to them.

Appreciate the offer...Your kinda far...I'll keep playing with it...To make matters worse someone before I had the truck, took the front hubs off & installed 16.5 wheels from a 3/4 ton...I finally was able to find replacement hubs, so I can get it back to where it should be...Slowly I'm getting all the rube goldberg problems ironed out. You would have thought this truck came from Cuba. Thanks again...
