w300 wheels

[68dually]

When I got my truck in 2010 it was partially disassembled, had m715 wheels on it and the 6 dually wheels were in a pile. I think the two deeper wheels are for the back on the outside but I'm not sure so I need some expert advise from you guys. Also, when I had them sandblasted 2 of the shallow ones were badly rotted on the inside around the vave stem so I'm looking for some good ones for sale. Any help would be great. They are 6 lug.

Thanks, Randy

I have six 17.5's from my 62. I never measured the back spacing, but eye balling them, they look to be all the same.

W300 wheels are all the same backspacing if the truck has dual rear wheels. It's done to make them interchangeable front to rear and inner or outer. Don't put a lot of effort into 17.5 inch wheels nobody makes tires for them anymore, at least thats what happened with my Dad's 63 W300. We found 16 inch wheels in 6 lug but they were all split rim, good luck getting someone to mount those. I have read on here about 19.5 inch wheels but they seem to be rare.

You can still buy 17.5's. They're mostly steer or trailer tires though.

Got my wheels today from CA. I took them right over to get blasted. Thanks Terry

My 61 W300 had the 6-lug split rims. I had the centers cut out and welded into new 16" tubeless rims. The new rims are stock width. Wish I would have waited and found a set of used, wider width rims to use.
