Does this OEM wheel actually exist in the real world?

This might sound like a strange question but... does this wheel actually exist? When I look for 20" steel wheels for Dodge Ram 1500 I see this exact wheel (12 holes, crease in stamping around outer perimeter of holes) for sale all over the place but I can't find any proof that they actually exist and I just had to refuse delivery of a set of wheels because what they sent me is something else. Everyone who has these for sale has the same photos.

I don't want to go through this again so I am asking here if anyone's ever seen these wheels in the real world.

I have seen a 17" version of the 12 hole, "flat" funnel face but I am looking for 20" wheels. The 17" version have one "offset" hole for the air valve. The mysterious 20" ones have the air valve outboard of the crease (seen in product photo above)

That is the wheel my spare tire was on. Should be able to call your local wrecking yards and ask for them. Being the spare they most likely have never been on the road or even mounted to the hub.

I've looked on eBay for examples of that wheel and found zero, there are tons of steel spare wheels just not that one. Weird for it to be so rare? There is an extremely similar 19" oem wheel for Volkswagen commercial vans in the UK, I have found photos of that actually existing

I have seen this wheel. Treasure hunt had a set of 4, $250 each. I was there on the stores opening day a few years ago, they had them nicely displayed. When the company went bankrupt before Christmas they still had them I offered them $50/per in November and was told to go pound sand.

They do exist. But don’t pay that much for a steelie.

That sure looks like the spare I found on Craigslist($20).ill check later today and snap a pic if its the same.When I switched to 20s from the 17s I wanted a 20 rim...tried a few junk yards they all told me it didn't exist..I even presented info to them to show them different. But I finally found one some months later...couldn't believe $20 though..tire on it was brand new,wrong size but brand new...guy sold his truck and had no use for it.
