18" wheels for my M1009?

[rhinob]

So I have these tires sitting around that are 275/65/R18 Mud-Terrains and thought that it would be nice to be able to throw them on the Blazer from time to time for various adventures. The problem is finding a basic black steel/alloy wheel that is made for this truck in an 18".

Any thoughts or should I just sell them (only 1000 miles on them) and get some 15" wheels and tires for this purpose?

Many thanks!

I don't think you'll find too many 18" steel wheels, unless you get some custom made. You may be able to find some 18" alloy wheels from newer Chevy/GMC trucks. Bolt pattern is the same, but the backspacing is different. So you would need spacers.

I would think that for what you could sell them for, you could get a new set of 31-33 inch tires and some used stock C/K wheels.

This appeared to be my most promising resource. American made, excellent quality (found someone with them on a Land Rover.)

Why stop at 18"?

Tease.

Actually it's because I already have the tires....
