So multiple issues as expected, to get my newly aquired 1993 Winnebago Vectra Spartan M-35RQ Turbo-Diesel Pusher/Allison equipped Coach able to make the 240 mile drive back to my house.
I'm trying to do things right, taking my time as the seller is in no hurry for it to go, and wants me to be safe relocating it.
Anybody else have a tough time getting nicer wheels on one of these? It has 19.5 6-lug steel painted wheels. Wish it would have came with the Alcoa Aluminum that were an option, wish more it had come with 22.5 inch that are also listed in my Spartan Chassis manual as an option.
Why did Winnebago put 6 lug 19.5's on these if 22.5 were available (and what lug pattern would they have been?)?
I know 22.5 are more expensive, but they sure would look nicer I think.
So,
Asking for suggestions where to find 19.5 6-lug wheel/tires at rv wreckers etc. near Oregon to upgrade from the tires on it that are waaaay past their safe operating date.....225/70/19.5 x 6
Thanks!

22.5" rims are 10-lug, which rules out that idea.

Current 19.5 6 lug wheels are on hubs that use 15inch brakes (Air Assisted Hydraulic), but I wonder what hubs would have been used by Spartan if this had been a chassis they provided the optional 22in 10 lug wheels on?
