Does anyone know what type of rims on this green and BLK truck?
Thanks in advance, Joel from FL

 

Those look like some old Eagle alloys IIRC.

 

Those are Alcoa LTS Forged wheels. 16 x 7 LTS 5-spoke
8 on 6.5"
P/N 167031



There was a recall in late 2000 that stated they were sold from 1994 until September 2000.

edit, You may be right O. Foster, but Alcoa LTS gets my vote. LTS often spelled LT$ lol

You might have a good bet to buy some used, I see them a lot on fancy enclosed trailers, and on some Ford E350 Accessibility vans.

Also, Since I do certainly recall the LTS 8 lug 5 spoke available new in the aftermarket as recently as a few years ago, I believe that the remaining commercial stock at distributors was sold until they were all gone.

 

Wow! Thx for the quick response!

 

Got all excited that I was getting free wheels for my power wagon, mine look a little different then the ones in the recall. Can't find a part number either just always assumed they were Alcoa's

 

I'm sure you could still take those free ones in to an Alcoa distributor with a printout of the recall, and get a set of brand new shiny alcoa classics. Not a bad deal nonetheless.

 

Thanks again! What a great forum for a noobie. I read other OEM fit 8 on 6.5 but some stated conflicting info. If I use any year Dogde rims will work on my 92? I know others stated Ford yuck and chevy yuck will fit too?
Thanks in advance, Joel from FL

 

for bolt on stock wheels (no adapters) Dodge 93 and earlier.
ford 97? and earlier.
Chevrolet has a smaller center hole and won't just bolt on.
Lots of guys run ford wheels because they are an inch wider.

 

I have bolted on '94-'97 2nd gen Dodge Chrome SLT rims on MANY a 1st gen.
They are only 16 x 6.5 rims, so wide tires like 285 to 315 /75/R16 start wearing in the middle to much for me.

 

I would love to have a set of the old American bean slot wheels for mine. Something that screams 1970s.

 

The 2nd gen dodge truck steelies have about 5/8" too much backspace, for a more narrow track, that is visually noticeable. I've run them with the 265/75R16 and had to pull over during a strong sidewind with a cabover camper due to instability.

Also, Ford Econoline E350/E250 VANS are an excellent source of the ford/accuride Ford/Alcoa wheels as they didn't go to 170MM bolt space like the super duty pickups did in 1998.

McNittle> like these?

 

Much props again to fellow 1st gen genners Thanks again for ur help! Joel

 

Exactly. That's good to know about the ford vans. I will probably end up hunting down a set of the Ford Alcoas for mine. Right now I have enough to think about.

 

Oh yeah, and a bird bath hood gotta have one of those.

 

There's several sets of Frod Alcoa's on evilpay right now.
