Custom rims for my Class C

I hate hubcaps. I'm looking for a set of custom wheels for my RV that sits on a Ford E450 Chassis. Standard 16" wheels won't fit due the oversize calipers on RVs an susrprisingly Discount Tire has not been able to help.
Any sources for a nice set of 16" would be appreciated.

Ordered a set.
I ordered from them too, the Dura-Bright version of the Alcoa wheels last spring. Per our bathroom scale, an Alcoa wheel weighs 20 pounds less than a stock Ford steel wheel.....63 pounds versus 83 pounds with a new Michelin Agilis CrossClimate tire mounted. Here they are on our rig.









This is exactly the setup I just put on ours. I have the same wheels on my Dodge Dually since 2004 just not in durabright.

Thanks to everyone who replied.

Maybe a nice quality set of stainless steel simulators? I've always thought those looked good.

But get the bolt on type. Look great & no fear of them popping off & rolling down the road.

So, what fits? 17s, 18s?
I thought pretty much all E350/450 chassis had and have 16โ€ wheels.
Regardless, any aftermarket wheel mfg that makes wheels for dually pickups will very likely have what your looking for in several styles. There are a plethora of online wheel retailers.
You may need to search for F350 dually wheels. Although I think those have been 17s (stock size) for years now.
It can be a challenge if you donโ€™t see your direct application by vehicle model. Get the diameter, width , offset and lug pattern of your OE wheels and search by that size maybe.

Or if your only looking to buy from a storefront business, try other tire shops that sell a lot of aftermarket wheels, or 4wd shops like 4wheelparts.

We sprayed the rim with the bright silver paint and it's surprisingly satisfying.
