Ramchargers, but they may be hard to find. I know I've never seen a set of 8's in the yards. Summit has them new for about $90.00 ea.

Besides the Super Coupes they made 15x8 steelies? The biggest I have are a half dozen 15x7 cop wheels, the rest plain janes are all 15x6. I don't count my steelie Ramcharger wheels. Somewhere in the '80s they made the swap to the Ford truck pattern (5 on 5") so they won't fit anything but the Ramcharger.

Both the Super Coupe and Ramcharger wheels are easy to spot. Both are 15X8, and both are distinctive.

A100 van & truck wheels. They have the big centers that would fit the larger hubcaps from the 63-65 b-bodies. Wildcat Mopar in Oregon has these. They have plenty left, but grab your ankles and pray for the best! :blush: I paid $75.00 per wheel, now they are selling them at $150 per wheel. If you don't have the bigger hubcaps and don't mind the wheels that use the dog-dish hubcaps, than try wheels vintique.

Wildcat Mopar will only have 5" and 6" wide wheels, you will have to have them made special for the 8" drums (about $130 per wheel). Wheels Vintique will have them up to 10 inches wide. Hope this helps!

Good info to know. What year Ramchargers? What year did they make the switch to the bigger (Ford truck) bolt pattern?

The Ramcharger wheels are NOT made for the large hubcap.

My rear 15-8 steelies were from a late 70,s 2wd ramcharger with the trailduster package.
