I don't know but thought I'd save the pictures in case someone see's this after the auction expires

Be sure you verify that they are one piece wheels. Some early offerings were two piece, and very prone to fail.

I think what you have there are some old Ultra dually wheels, and I think they came from Mervyn's Auto Center about 15 years ago or so. They use a conical lugnut..... I bought a container full of wheels from their bankruptcy sales in Denton a long time ago. There were some sets of those 10 hole wheels in there. I don't think anyone else makes an 8 lug with ten holes in a dual wheel. Centerline makes a 3/4 ton wheel in their Wilderness series, Center Line Wheels. There might still be some Chinese brands that have that feature... . I'm not sure what they might be, though.

wheels ???

Yes you are correct. I did further research. Ultra is back in business in Ca.

They no longer make the wheel. Say they will never make them ever again even if I order 500 of them. I was not very impressed with the people that run the company. They are not very good business men.



If anyone runs across any of these, I would like to buy a set or two.

Let me know... ///Thx

What size of wheel was this? 16 or 19. 5?

 

[HHhuntitall]

I believe it was 16. I don't think they've ever offered anything else for a dualled rear until recently, last 5 years or so, in any larger sizes. And I think they are limited to 17s there. If it were a 19. 5 8 hole, I'd have some in stock if I could get my hands on 'em!! And probably some on my trucks!
