Hope someone has one to fill your need. I'll take a peek to see if there's anything in your vicinity on the web and report back if I find anything.  Best of luck in your search!

Can you send me a PM with how best to determine if one of my rims would meet your needs? | | | | | Joined: Aug 2001 Posts: 3,632 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: Aug 2001 Posts: 3,632 | I may have one for you Carl but have to check the size. New dry rotted bias ply tire mounted on a 3 piece rim and holds air good. If it is the right one, pick it up free next June in Townsend Tn. I'll check latter today, it could make a good spare.

Still a long road trip from VA (local pickup only) for one wheel and his $100 asking price seems steep IMHO. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2186565635522398I'll keep looking.
