I have 76 short wide on 3/4 ton axles. I can't find any 8 luv rally wheels and I really feel like they don't make them. Anyone have suggestions on what would look good. I like the classic look and I don't want anything over 16 inches

8 lug rallies were never offered. Just 5 and 6 lug.

I got this when I was 16 for my first truck and I saw the rallies on another square in town and wanted a set but I decided to wait til I swapped it. I'm 19 now and just swapped it to 3/4 ton. I'm so disappointed that now I can't get them

That truck screams Cragar SS to me...or maybe Super Trick.

I like those wheels but I'm looking for something with more of an original steel wheel look. I guess this would be the next best thing to rallies what do you guys think? Also this is the first forum I've ever been on so sorry if I'm doing anything wrong lol

The wheels in the picture look really good.

But a wide (like 10 inches) aftermarket 8-lug steely with factory hubcaps would look good too. The average factory wheel is skinny, there were optional wide wheels too, but they were all 16.5's.

I actually have 16.5in tires because I didn't have any 8 lug wheels and my buddy's dad had a set of them. I just don't know if I want to buy 16.5in wheels or not because I don't want to continue to have to find tires for them

Stockton Wheel can probably make what you're looking for. You can add trim rings and add stock center caps like the photo or modify center caps for any GM 8 lug from 1992 and up. I understand not going with 16.5" wheels. Super Swamper is about the only one still making them. I really can't see paying $300-400 per tire when there are 16 and 17" options.
