CUCV tire/wheel

[dirtyfingernails]

I need a spare for my trailer (M101A2) with 8 lug rim (I think this is also the same rim for the CUCVs). Is this a correct assumption? Anybody have one or two spare tires/wheels for sale? Please let me know. I need it NOW.
Thanks.

8 Lug rims

I have some 8-Lug rims that came off of a school bus that may work for your application. When I bought my CUCV from a guy in Carmel New York, he threw them in with the deal. I see you live in Florida - I live in West Melbourne Florida which is right by I-95. If you are interested in them let me know. I can probably take photos of them for you if you like.

RE: 8 Lug rims

Al,
I'd be interested if I knew they fit the trailer (or CUCV) for sure. Any way you could give me a serial number or NSN number off the rims? Thanks!

Going out to take photos right now

I just happen to have a set of M1008 brake drums that I can use to demonstrate the rims with. It will take a few minutes and I'll get back with you.

Photos of the rims

Here you go! These are 8" wide at their widest point from the edge of the rim to the other edge. The tire bead that you see is from some bald tires that used to be on the rim - I had to "chew" the tire off of the rims so that the trash people would pick them up (also had to pare and quarter the tires and put them in trash bags to get rid of them). I have four of these. I don't want to ship them but if you want to drive over or down to my place you can have them for free. These are quite heavy!

RE: Photos of the rims

That last pic makes it look like super low profile tires. (its cut I know) Turning your CUCV into a lowrider??
