Hello, I recently picked up a set of 5 ton axles to put underneath my 47 Ford Heavy Duty. The problem is I don't have any rims for these axles. I found a guy who will sell me a set of rims and tires. He has an option for either aluminum or steel rims. I have never heard of aluminum rims for these trucks, I would have figured with the weights these trucks deal with that the rims would have to be steel. He says the aluminum rims are 20". Would they be worth getting since the truck when I'm done will be a trail/tow rig and won't really be getting abused. Or should I ask him for a set of steel rims to just be on the safe side. Any help is appreciated. Below are pictures of the axles I have.
