A quick search turned up this post where you can get them from the manufacturer, about $700 each. Surplus might be cheaper, but a little harder to find. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=6600&highlight=m35a3

Good luck finding them. They bring exorbitant prices if you can even find them. I'd jump all over them if I could find them for $100 each, which I can't. Every blue moon or so a few show up on GL.

how much do used combat rims go for?
my boss bought some more property and it came with
a military trailer from the 50s it was a wreck but I got the rims
off it and put them on the front wheels of the duce.

Not sure, but REOM34 (a member in Spain) is looking for just the rings off some of the old combat wheels. He bought a load of NOS surplus from the Spanish Govt., got 7 NOS wheels, but no rings! If anyone can help him, PM either one of us.

AH HA HA HA HA HA!!!! Bet you want those rims on a gold-plated pallet too, doncha? Wait! Lemme look in my shed! They're in there right behind the 5-gallon pail of elbow grease, and the 500-foot hank of flight line!

No seriously, you're gonna need a LOT of luck finding those. A bunch of use here have been REALLY combing the auction pages hoping for a glimpse, but they seem to be rarer than hen's teeth...

Any help is wellcome

In all seriousness... they are available... The guys that have them usually have them in 2's or 3's and consider them gold... the guys that truly want them can accept sterling silver... but can never find them in a full set.

I've found one "set" for sale as surplus... $600... EACH!
