Ok, I'm looking for some cool chrome wheels for my dak.........unfortunately finding some cool ones with the 6 lug pattern has been a pain in the ass!!! From American Racing i got to choose from 3 different kinds.........not cool. Does anyone have info on a good source of wheels for the dak's? Or are we screwed cause of the lug pattern? Thx for any help.

I just got the O.Z. Nova S/T rims. I can relate to your situation... it took me 3 months of trying to find certain wheels for the Dakota and the deals always fell through because nobody could find the right size for it.

So I just got these and have heard nothing but complements on how they look, and they're not even on the truck yet!!

How about changing your lug pattern to a 5

You must be looking for a 5 spoke design.

Thx for the URL, will check that out in a few. I've checked out that adaptor that changes the lug pattern (is that what you were talking about?) but my area 4x4 dealer didn't recommend it due to not being as strong. Is he wrong? As for the design, what I would really like is the American Racing Outlaws.......or similar, something solid chrome like that. You just don't see those anymore, I like to be diff. Thx for the info. I am pressing on.........wish me luck.

The12thMan...........those wheels look sweet, but they look more for a lowered truck, not so much for a 4x4 like I am trying to build up. Are you planning on putting those on a 4x4? Mine won't necessarily see some serious offroad, I already beat up one truck doing that, but it will see some mud and snow.

Mine is a 2wd, I'm not gonna lower it yet, it'll stay at stock height for now.

O.Z. is more known for racing on the pavement and not the dirt, and I don't think the smaller spoke design would look that good on a 4x4, although that rim is considered all-terrain.

Also I wouldn't put chrome on a 4x4. If you're still interested in the Nova S/T they do come in silver alloy.

Good luck in your search. One of the disadvantages of being "Dodge Different". Just FYI, the other two dealers that gave me problems were Salesco and USA Tires. I won't be buying anything from them in the future.
