I need some wheels for 245/75/16 tires. They will be all terrains most likely, rarely see offroad. I'm looking for some black rims with around 4-4.5" backspacing. Should I use 16*7 or 16*8? Also does anyone know of any wheels for less than 65$? I know cragar has some for bout 75$ a piece...... I also currently have four jeep canyon wheels with nothing wrong with them. How much could I get out of them? I see them on ebay for over 100 each buy it now.
Thanks guys.

When I bought my 2 sets (at the same time) there was a 3 week wait. They shipped in a week.

Well that answers my Q about buying them..
You should be able to get at least 60$+ for the set of wheels. I would say just go online and order the wheels you want and call it good.
treadepot.com has good deals on wheels/tires. Otherwise black steel wheels from jegs or summit are probably your best bet.

I've ordered from treadwright along with most my family, and you can never really tell how fast you may get them...may take a month may take a week...i personally got mine in about 2 weeks...but i live in the town where they are located so i didn't have to wait for shipping...you can not get a better deal on tires then going with treadwrights...great tread patterns and do excellent on and off road.
