does anyone make a halfway decent looking 15 inch 8 lug rim other than them ugly eaton conversion wheels and the pro comp cheap steel chrome rims? If anyone has pics of their pro comp 15 inch 8 lug chrome rims on ur rigs post up so i can see how they might look, it seems they are the only option
 
I have 15" 8 lug pro comps but they are black powercoat :dunno:

Honestly, its a pretty tough wheel size to find so if you're looking for chrome you may not have many options.

real hard to come across and only made in a couple of styles. 15" wheels with any BS over 3" wouldn't fit over stock brake on any 3/4 or 1 ton, so none were made from the factory and since theres only a small market for them, very little aftermarket. if you want a decent looking 8 lug wheel with lots of options, go to a 16" wheel.
 
I just ordered a set of 15x14, 8 lug chrome Bart wheels with 3 inch BS from Performance Depot. U.S. Wheel has chrome 15" wheels in 8 lugs but they look kind of generic. I got a good price on my wheels but they told me that it would be 5-6 weeks before they ship because they "were not an on the shelf item" so they would have to be made. Oh well.
 
A long time ago I believe you could get an aluminum 15" 8-lug through Weld, but they were big $$$. From my understanding they are no longer produced. The issue is fitment over any standard 8-lug front hub setup. You have to grind a bunch more than steel wheels because the aluminum requires thicker material and thus even less clearance.

I spent a lot of time shopping for 15" 8-lugs and all I ever found were the regular old spokes in white or chrome, or modulars in white, black, or chrome.
 
im in the same shoes....i like the crager nomad II wheels, but the load rating is only 1600 per wheel. that's not that much. think they'll be ok?
 
I know 16's can be a PITA to find a wide selection of tires for at a reasonable price but they have a safety bead like 15's do...maybe you should search for 15's or 16's...
Especially if you are set on a specific tread and they make it in a 16...its not like you'd be needing to look for new tires every year...
