http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/ ... _200317483 ...but man, thats alot of money...

and i can get them here---with marathons(best trailer tire made)--but still very expensive... http://www.candomarineparts.com/Wheels.html

...what happened to being able to get the old school aluminum "modular" rims for like 50 bucks a piece?? am i just not looking in the right places??use to be able to get them from jc whitney--apparently, they dont carry them any more??

anybody got a good place with good (nice-looking)rims, good pricing, easy shipping?? if only rims-- i can get the goodyear marathons locally for a nice price...

i need 14 inch--5 hole

thanks

I found 12" load star with chrome wheels for around $70 each delivered on ebay. I searched for trailer tires. He had all sizes.

Try wrecking yard or local custom wheel dealer, often trade ins are what you may want but other customer have traded in on something different.......

Also used tire dealer may have wheels that may meet your desires.....

"New" is not always best deal...... Be flexible on design........ There is hundreds of designs out there..........

I have an old (1968)homebuilt car trailer, that used ford pickup spindles, and it had homemade offset wheels, that leaked. I checked the local tire and wheel place and it would have been over $100 over per wheel just for steel white spokes, called Summit and got them for $25 a wheel with free shipping, they where dropped shipped from the company because of the custom offset (1 inch backspacing). They came raw steel since they where custom order, they painted them at work for $10.
To make a long story short check with Summit.

I picked up some of these with tires from a local supplier today, I got tired of looking for 'deals' and not finding them - now I'm sure I'll find deals.

They are close to the wheels I want to eventually put on my Jeep.

bontragers rv surplus... www.bontragers.com They are in southern Michigan, but I believe they sell via the web.

I just picked up two aluminum 14" wheels with NEW tires, $85 each. I had gone there to get steel rims/tires for $55 a piece after being quoted $120 from a discount tire place. For the same price, I got aluminum wheels with a single spare (steel).
