I need info on V100 wheels compared to M35 wheels. I have a guy that wants some of the HEMTT beadlocks that I recenter for the deuce and I see that they have the same bolt pattern and I think the axles are the same width as well?
I believe the axles are a tad wider. Try one of the ones you have already done on it. Charge for your time, but not too much, don't want to run him off right away!
The V-100 wheels are 10"w x 20" as are the 5t super single combat rims , or HEMTT rims. They might would work if you re-centered them. Someone else here was doing this for a deuce and half application.
I have a set of V-150 wheels (not shown/not for sale) that had their 10 holes(and center) welded up and then machined down. They have ~10-1/2" backspacing. The V-150 used 5t axles.
The V uses a 9-1/4" backspacing wheel (mounting surface to back edge of lip). They have the std 6 bolt deuce pattern w/same 6-1/2" center hole. The V may be able to gain an inch of backspacing but not much more as the rear tires will get too close to vertical hull surface. The could probably loose a few inches w/o problems(?).
The V wheels locking rings have larger lips and flanges (than std 5t wheels for 1100x20 tires). I would guess the Supersingle and HEMTT wheels also have the larger lips because they are using 1400x20's. I was told the std 5t locking ring works on the V wheels even though the channel in wheel is wider. That wide channel can be seen in the last picture. The other side of the rim (inside) has a wide band to accommodate the channel.
You might also be able to use the M35A3 wheel. They are wide enough. I am not sure what backspacing those have but they look close.

Whats the word, can you do the 9 1/2" backspacing? I just got my set of spare rims for the V100 out to get them powdercoated, and while cleaning them up found that they are actually 21x10's! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!!!!
Here's the custom wheels I talked about building. A lot of work! The two piece HEMTT wheels that had the centers waterjet cut needed additional machining in order to get them to run concentric.
