Steel wheel source
I'm in need of four new 15 x 6 - 6 lug steel wheels for my rebuild. Can anyone point out a decent source for new wheels?
I tried to buy the steel wheels I found online at eTrailer, but they do not have the provision for installing hub cap clips and as a result don't meet my needs.

Re: Steel wheel source
if you need new clip wheels you will need to have a set made at stockton wheel. http://www.stocktonwheel.com/ you will need to have your desired wheel width and backspace and know if you are/or plan to run disc brakes. they will build anything you ask for.
an option is to order new wheel vintiques wheels from summit or jegs. you can also order new wheel vintiques caps that will work with the new wheels. pay attention to the cap style the wheels you choose will take, there are i think three different types of the same chevrolet stainless cap. you can get them in smoothie style, which i love myself, or artillery style, which I have also used, or the gennie style wheel that I have used too. you can click my name and look at a couple of my trucks in my gallery, anything that is steel with a stainless cap is a wheel vintique product.

Re: Steel wheel source
As Joedoh said Wheels Vintique makes them but you have to use their caps. https://www.wheelvintiques.com/all-wheels/truck.html
As for Stockton Wheel, you have to ask. Years ago the people who ran it would make it work for any reasonable request but I don't know about now.
