Hy nycsupercars, welcome, please read "Wheels and tires---What to do" at the top of our Big Bolt forum, that will bring you up to speed with this rather complicated subject.

10 on 7.25” tubeless wheels are pretty much not unavailable unless one is lucky, must search yards on ones own, don’t ask, they won’t know what you are talking about.

Some C-60, etc. wheels can be modified with some work.

There are plenty of 10x7.25 wheels available in junkyards and from used truck parts dealers - but they're going to be 19.5" rims and have a 5.25" hub bore. So you'll want to be sure that the 19.5 will fit over your drums before a set (they didn't fit over my drums on my '47), and you'll have to have a machine shop turn a set of hub bushings.

I spoke with a veteran-owned company called "Weels now" in Wisconsin. They gave a quick response and were very helpful. I was in need of 22.5 Bud style 6 lug 8-3/4 spacing and the price at the time was $249 plus shipping> the website is sales@wheelsnowinc.com or call them at 800-782-5145.
good luck
