Im looking for a 15'' mag wheel like the stroppe ones that can be used with the stock disk brake set up.
I run 8's on mine with 1/2 spacer. Been that way for years with no problems

Maybe it's because it's really hard to find a light duty 16" tire and these rims are light duty (i.e. load range C preferably or maybe D tires)?Does anyone remember why USMAGS didn't want to go with a 16" rim in the U101?
17's just seem a little off on a 2.5" uncut rig.
I felt like the 16's would be just close enough that most wouldn't notice, would provide just enough clearance for the stock 76/77 knuckle set up, and allow for some other tire choices.
Am I off in my thinking?
...Are we collectively using the term synonymously with "alloy". Just confused and curious.
... and if we're trying to be accurate, steel is an alloy (iron alloyed with carbon, and often other things). So every wheel out there is an "alloy" wheel (except the old wooden ones).

....what about Fred's (Flintstone) stone wheel/tire combo? Probably a conglomerate.
I'm with you, I wish they would have made a 16x7
