I bought them in Nov 07 at a Discount Tire Store. The wheels came in the box to the shop. Discount Tire carries the BFG's so they mounted and balanced them at the shop. They were great to work with and couldn't believe I could get 33's on without a lift.
The 5x5 pattern was not something they carried in their wheel selection so they gave me a good price for the wheels I wanted. I showed them I could get these wheels for $105 on the Internet and they said we will beat the price. It may have helped that I was buying 5 instead of 4 like many non-Jeep owners. One other thing they have a replacement policy (it costs) without pro-rating the tire for wear. Check with them for the details.

Whoever is doing that welding has done some real nice work. Even though I don't weld professionally anymore, I still carry my certification. Nice job. I'd just bet you could sell those.
