Rims for trade or buy

Hey Guys I am looking for a set of 15x10 or 15x12 used rims. I found some I could buy but money is tight just like everyone else. I have a set of 15x12 6 lug but I need 8 Lug. I am willing to trade rims OR if someone has an 8 lug set of rims and tires I will trade wheels and tires. Can anyone help. Here is a pic of what I got.

in a 15" rim, you're not going to find anything but steel wheels in 8 lug.

you're a brave man running 40s on 1/2 ton axles!

That wasn't my settup. I bought it as a repo and I think the guy was an idiot who had it. All that tire and the gears didnt even match. Once I got the truck running, I found out that the 4x4 did not work. It had 3:42 in the rear and 4:56 in the front. Needless to say My rear tryed to out run my front. So know I found a 3/4 ton with matching gears and know that is why I am looking for some 8 lug rims. Here are some before and after. I am still doing body work with it know. It is a work in progress. I need somthing to keep me busy and trying not to spend a lot of $$$$$$.

You're goin' to see a lot of 16" & 16.5" wheels in 8 lugs, but no 15"....I doubt you could even find 15" 8 lugs as I have never seen any.

Yea they are out there, they are just rare. I have seen some like on ebay, but they are selling 2 or 3. I would like to find a set of 4. If I can't find some that someone wants to trade or whatever used. Then I am going to have to buy them brand new. Little more than I wanted to pay. But everything happens for a reason.
