P.S. I hope I didn't confuse anyone by saying wagon wheels, I'm just looking for some stock rims for my truck. All the sites I've checked are out of them.

Only place I've found them has been in wrecking yards.

Do you mean aftermarket?

No, but it looks like that's the route I have to go. What is the back spacing and offset on the rims? So I know when I order the aftermarket ones. The rock crawler rims and the american racing rims are the closest ones I know of. Does american racing sell the right size rim? I can't find it.

I finally got the wagon wheels today from a mopar parts dealer. I couldn't find any originals online, so I got them in person. Also picked up some seats for the truck that will be reupholstered. Parts are so hard to get for these trucks, that it took 5 months just to find close matching seats and the correct rims. Quick question. Are the center caps on the rims for the 77-78 machos different from the 79 machos? Because in the pictures, they look different. Also, if they're different, will the 79 center caps fit on a 78 truck? I ordered reproduction center caps and they look like the 79 ones. Can't find any from 77-78. By the way, the caps just snap in, right? Any help would be appreciated.
