Lou,
I have (4) 15x7 spoked steel wheels (5 lug on 4.5") that you are welcome to
have. They will need to be sand blasted and painted. Someone threw them in
the metal pile at the dump and I just could not leave them there.
Also, if you are primarily looking for snow traction the 10.5" width is not
your best choice. A narrower tire would work better.
Dave
