The old '77 E350 motorhome has 16.5's on it. I was going to swap and put the 16's from my '81 F350 dump on it. If anyone has a set of 6 or 7 coined wheels lemme know....Thanks

Cheap enough. Just buy new ones.

those aren't coined.
can you run non-coined rims on a coined hub?
not a good idea.
here's why.....
the later rims use the hub lip to keep the wheels centered.
the coined rims use the lug nut studs to keep the wheels centered by using the acorn nuts on the built up areas of the rim.
most of the older stuff is 16.5 rims. 80-86 duallies run the 16" coined rims, but they are not easy to find.

Guess I'll go ahead and put the 16.5's on the dump for now. Buy the new 215/75-16's to put on the 16's and get them on the RV. Shout if you hear of a set. Thanks
