8-lug steel wheels are considered a HD wheel so the market is HD trucks. Late model dually wheels upsized the diameters to 17" after approx 2010. Not sure how many single wheel apps there were during these years but 16" wheels were still used.

No aftermarket OE style 8-lug 17" wheel is available that I'm aware of. Detroit Steel makes 'solid' steelies in larger diameters but they're not what I call an original type wheel. And yes.... Even steel wheels are going to cost over $100 a pop or more depending on how big/wide you want to go.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
