These rims on Ebay are described as being 8 lug, with a 3" backset. That sounds to me like they might work on an AD 1 Ton . Can anybody advise me or tell me who makes these ?

I have a set of these on my 57 3/4 ton and I have had many compliments on them. They are made by a company called AWC and mine also came new in the box. I gave $85 per wheel for the wheel, center cap, and lug nuts. The wheels do not rub on my 57, however you do need to be careful about the tire size. I am running 235x85x16 and I had to add the 1/4" spacer on the front to keep the tires from rubbing on the tie rod ends.

57 Mike,
thankyou for your information. I have been trying to find rims with less backset than the standard Chevy rims, at 4 5/8 ". Now I have a line on who makes some. On the AD 1 Tons, the original backset is about 3".
