I understand you are looking for 5 lug wheels. Paul is referring to six bolt divided rims as fitted to 8 cwt trucks, so those will not fit on your truck.

Have you tried contacting one of the many hot rod custom steel wheel manufacturers? From what I know there are plenty of those in the USA?

You could contact Bart wheels. The manufacture wheels for the racing crowd and may be able to help you.

Bart also at one time would sell a wheel shell so that you could weld in your own wheel centre.
