Anyone know of a 16" steel wheel that will fit the GMC? Love the Alcoas but looking for the cheap way to get rid of the 16.5s

Maybe you'll be able to find 6 good used ones, but if you have to buy new ones, they're only $25-$35 cheaper/ wheel - or so I found in my limited research.

Brett, 
 
I have all four rear wheels off of my coach right now (doing wheel bearings).  They are 16" steel Firestone wheels off of late 70s? Chevy one-ton dual wheel trucks with a dome shaped center.  The newer wheels with the cone shaped centers will not fit.  I can check the numbers later when I get home.  These wheels appear to be hub centered.  At least they fit tightly to the hub.

Obegone,
Are these 16.5 or 16 that you are replacing?

This is the one once leased to Sammy Davis Jr.
Did you buy it in Santa Paula?
