I got my NOS wheels in. These things are nice. I just shot them with some compressed air and rattle canned. Date code on both wheels is 8/25/1988. One of the 2 wheels came with a crack in the lip. I reached out to the seller on Ebay and they immediately shipped me another one, overnight. This is the seller if anyone is looking for military vehicle parts.

I finally got new tires on these wheels. Goodyear Wrangler Workhorse HT, 215/85/16. They fit great.
