Those are pulling wheels. Those are 15" wide, not tall.

**stllookn** · 02-10-2009, 11:08 AM

Those are pretty rare. I have only seen one used set...and don't recall the price.

69-chevy1 · 02-10-2009, 01:44 PM

well if you guys find a price let me know.
thanks

In the beed of one of my trucks was one 15" 8 bolt rim. I dont what company made it, but it is a 2 piece.

69-chevy1 · 02-10-2009, 03:25 PM

rcbildr · 02-10-2009, 04:29 PM

IIRC I paid $100-$120 for the set of 15" 8 lug wheels that's on my burb...they were in pretty good shape too.

I had some 8 lug 15" (white spoke)on a 72 3/4 ton back in 1986.Dont remember where i got them but I ordered them new from a local tire shop.I just looked at the Summit site and found several steel 15" 8 lug from $36.95 to $163.99

bsgmcc20 · 02-11-2009, 04:41 PM

my mess up 16" rims off an 05' 8 lug

My lil brother had a set of 8 lug 15" rims on his Blazer for a while. I think he gave em away or they may still be in the scarp pile. If you can get $40 out of a set you're probably doing good. If you think they're worth more try listing em on Craigslist. Maybe someone will jump on em.

**special-K** · 02-11-2009, 07:39 PM

Just so you know,you can`t ask what something`s worth without subscribing.

Are you wheels factory (hub cap) type?I`ve seen one shortbed 8-lug`57 with 15" split rims from factory.I have ordered 10 x15 8-lug wagon wheels back in the day.i saved alot of money on the set of wheels and tires and the tires looked bigger because of the smaller diameter wheel.On`e disc brakes came around 8-lug 15" started disappearing.

**Green Machine** · 02-11-2009, 09:38 PM
