I'm looking to see if anyone could give me any insight on where to buy new aftermarket custom rims for my 2008 C90 Lehman Jackal conversion. As I understand it the rear end is build after a 1978 Mustang II which is Four lug 4.25 pattern. Thanks in advance for any help you could give me.

Hi,Jim. I might be able to help you. What is your wheel size? 15"? Do you know the advertised width? Tire size?
Just for info but that bolt pattern is also used on H-D TriGlides and Freewheelers.
Clint the rim is a stock Lehman it's 15x7 offset is 17.7mm backspace 4.719. I am thinking about moving up to a 16 inch

Zero offset on a 7" rim equals 4" backspacing so your numbers sound correct,to me. With that amount of backspacing,that's a positive offset wheel. A lot of the 4x108mm (4x4.25) wheels I've looked at are negative offset. That may or may not make the search harder.
Do you have any side shots of the wheels currently on your trike,that you can post? Can you post a photo of a wheel you would like to switch to? I've been working with some custom wheel manufacturers about building some four bolt wheels,for H-D trikes,but I'm sure we can build them for just about any application. It just kinda depends on one's budget.
TriGlide wheel will set out too far and rub the fenders if it fits at all.

TG wheels are 15x5.5 and have 2.81" of backspacing. I only mentioned them because they are the same bolt pattern,Jim.
What would a pair of those Centerline Razors cost? They look pretty spiffy. :cool:
Just to add for those of you with a TriGlide or Freewheeler,those Centerline Razors wheels are in a 15x6, 15x7,and 16x7 sizing, with 3.5" backspace. All will fit your trike.
They were around $650.00 a pair (rear wheels)..... I don't know what they are now. Would have to call.

Billet front wheels are expensive,no two ways about it. I was guessing at least $900-$1,000.
Is M & J still in business?

Sorry I missed you today,when I called.
I found rear rims that fit my C50 at Jegs.com. Search by bolt pattern and check out what they have. Not a huge selection, but it is a little more than what you see normally, and they are very affordable. Hope it helps
But they are 17" or larger.....
15x7 with a 4.75 backspacing, fit my trike perfectly. No rubbing at all. $120 each approximately.
