Well needless to say I have my hands full at the present moment.. At some point later next week or early the week after I need to go pick up pops boat from Schiada. I lost a tire on the way home from the river last time and subsuquently a wheel as well. Lee is going to get one for me and put it on the trailer and move the spare back to it's original location etc.. but I need to order a replacement ASAP.

That being said, does anybody here work for a wheel shop? or perhaps have some catalogs they can look through to figure out what kind of wheel these are?

Ellis used American Eagle alot and Lee at Schiada found one very similar (Eagle alloy series 058) but I think their different. So if someone has a match that would actually help my cause right now, as I just don't have the time to do the research myself.

Any ideas?

RD

PVHCA (Phil) owns Hub Cap Annie in Upland. He should know a lot about wheels and have catalogs available to research it.

From the pics you've posted in the past I've always thought they were Weld wheels.....

Cragar used to make some that were real similar but they were chrome, not aluminum....

Those seem to have a large raidus on the entry of the holes.. The wheels we have don't have any radius. Point in fact the little radius they do have is from being polished.

Dave, do those wheels have a pair of screw holes in between the lugnuts, where a centercap could have been screwed on? Those also resemble the Centerlines I used to have on my Lightning (minus the centercap)... It is polished under the centercap as well.

No screw, but those are pretty much a ringer for them.. :) I wonder if centerline made them with no center cap?

I got them from Discount Tire, when I ordered them, they asked if I wanted any special offset or just a standard 15x10. If they asked me that, maybe they could be had without the caps as well? That was quite awhile back too, bought the truck new in 1995, probably put those wheels on it in '96, '97 at the latest. Don't know if they even make them anymore. They were part of the Champ series, Champ 500 or Champ 800, can't remember which.

I still have the wheels, I can check them out, see if there is any info on them to be had if ya like.... :hmm

Dave,

Those are alcoa wheels. Extreme use to put these on there trai;lers around 2000. I have the same wheels on my trailer. I will see if I can find a pic.
Last year when my trailer was at extreme for some maint. they found one in the back that I purschased as a spare. Might give them a call if they are still around.http://www.alcoa.com/alcoawheels/north_america/en/fsw/driver/light/lt_classicSeries.asp

The wheel in that link looks different then this one? On the one on the Schiada trailer where the holes are the wheel is actually going back towards the hub, to give it a "deep dish" look to the wheel. I "believe" (hard to tell from that picture on the alcoa website) that the alcoa one is actually flaring out towards the edge of the wheel?

Dave, I cant really tell, Are those holes on a convex or a concave surface? I have the Eagle Alloys on my truck that look A LOT like those But they are Concave on the surface that has the holes.

Here are the ones on my truck

They are on a convex surface. (as you defined it) The portion where the holes are is actually heading backwards towards the hub as it gets larger in diameter.

If you can't find a replacement and the center is good you can have a new "barrel" (rim) welded to the original center.I had this done on an older centerline that I couldn't find a replacement for. It came out perfect ( but pricey) I think about $200-250 included repolish. Place was in Santa Ana.

I want to thank UltraLucky again..

it sounds kind of stupid that this would somehow help me in dealing with the recent going ons.. but the fact is it really does. I would've spent hours and hours researching even trying to find what kind of wheel it is, and this really free'd up a lot of my day to focus on some more important things that I'm doing now.

Thanks Camden.

Glad I could help In some little way. Might give John a call at Ultra too as this trailer was ordered with the wheel package through him by East Coast Ultra back in 2000. Alcoa part # may be 458401 or 458421.
If the boat was not at Parker we could look at the spare for a #.
Hopefully you can find one at Extreme.

So the wheel was damaged? Or lost?

These guys can fix it, and they have a location in LA...

I have had them repair several OEM wheels and they look like new when finished. Not expensive, either.

Did they really close up shop?

I thought Zieman bought them out, but I hadn't heard they were out of business. I bought a tool box from them in October or November I think.

Zieman is going to have the trailer market cornered here if here if they already haven't done so. I know they bought out Hoss trailers a while back also. They make shit load of different trailer types. They're every where. :thumbsup

Apparently they did not.. I called earlier and they answered the phone?

RD

Good to know. I bought a bunch or stuff from them a few years back when I redid my trailer.

I am curious if Roger is still there. :hmm

He was their parts guys and one of the nicest and most helpful guys you could meet.
