Anyone got 15x8 or 8.5 wheels laying around?

I need 4, would rather not ship them.

If I can't find some, I will just order some cheapo steelies.

How about some 15x8 black rock crawlers? Some scratches, but they all balanced fine with my 35s. Make me an offer...

I'm pretty sure they're 4.25" BS.

8" width is not ideal for 10.50 tires, but they would work.

Yes, at least if you're actually wheeling. Narrower rims hold the tires better at low air pressure.

Let me get home, and I'll make an offer. Those are almost exactly what I want. I'm gonna run 12.5's on them. But I ain't scared of the sawzall.
