Default RE: 5 ton hemmt wheels $

If they are 5 ton wheels, that sounds like a good price. Do they come with valvestems, o-rings, bolts/nuts, and beadlocks? You could easily spend that much again if they don't.

I'm confused, are they 5-ton rims like on the 939-series trucks or are they the 2-piece rims found on the 10-ton HEMTT?

Understand the wheels pictured by Armyman30 are NOT HEMTT wheels. They are 939A1 wheels, and fit the M809 and M939 series of trucks.
HEMTT wheels have a different offset, but will fit the M809 and M939 series trucks.
I will get some comparison pics up this weekend.

There are several wheel types that have the same bolt pattern as the M809 series. Any "will work", but the 5 ton is "best".

Here are some pics. Will these fit my 800 series 5 tons, to run 1600x20s? Is $500.00 for 6 wheels a good deal?

I saw those rims come up a GL a while back. They are hub-centric with a larger hub opening. The regular 5-ton rims are lug-centric. John Winslow had a set and asked me about them. I didn't know what they were until I saw a M1076 PLS trailer with them on it one day.
