I don't think there's a neater wheel than the black 18" Rockstar dually's. They are awesome. Here's a link http://www.sporttruckspecialty.com/wheels/wheelpros/xdseries/rockstardually-black.htm

Those are nice looking, but what are they rated at? I'd hate to spend big money on rims and have them break when I'm hundreds of miles from home with 10k on the trailer.

Grumpy, don't have a clue, sorry. I bet you can find them on e-bay, or a wheel warehouse. You might be better off to sell those and buy a set of 8 lug wheels. I know I don't like the idea of any extra pieces in there. Better chance of things coming loose. My buddy had a 1/2 ton ferd he put dually fenders and wheels on, with adapter plates. When the wheels came off the 2nd time he got smart. Went and bought a wide rims and put a 15 or 16 inch tires under it. Looked pretty cool! ;)

I don't like running anythinng but forged aluminum. Everything I have right now has Weld Racing wheels. They got bought out by American Racing. I've gotten several sets off ebay and a set off craigslist. Alcoas and Centerline are also forged. I would run any cast wheels on a dually.
