Default OEM steelies

I have been locally searching for some of the old 6-9 spoke OEM steel wheels. I have found a set that the seller is claiming are OEMs, however they are 8 spoke. They have the center caps as well. I can't find a reference to an 8 spoke anywhere. Would someone enlighten me?? Thanks

I've since found pics of them and believe they are the white factory spokes that came on 87-88 wranglers. Can anyone confirm this for me? Thanks.

Salad: Neither. Google images of 1987-88 stock wrangler http://www.phoenixgraphix.com/amc/8788w.php . I can't post pics as of now. But I'm thinking that these were the only years that they were available.

Ohhh. Until you posted that link I didn't even realize there were a 6- and 8- spoke variants of that design. You can get the 6-spoke and 8-hole rims that I posted at Rock Auto. I guess Craigslist or a junkyard for your super spare rims.

OT: RockAuto apparently has 3 Turbines in stock

I was just looking for the 6 or 9 spoke OEM steelies to put on my 98 just because I like their look. Odd to some I'm sure. Ran up on these that a guy was selling, and after close examination of the pics thought he was trying to pass off another make on me. After researching the first time, I only found the 6 and 9 spokes. But then remembered the white spokes from way back that came stock on the earliest wranglers. Anyway, that's the story. I just love finding out new info.
