I have a residue M37 that has a pair of weird wheels and tires on the rear. Tubeless, wider than stock, but fits the 5-hole budd configuration. Could take a look next time I get out there and give you a better description. Guy I got it from may still have the front wheels/tires. I have no interest in them. Otherwise, like Jerry says, Stockton Wheel. I've seen some home made ones with budd centers welded into some other kind of rims, but I wouldn't trust my life to anything goobered up like that.
Budd wheels are fine wheels. Plenty of them around, strong, and lock rings are as safe as lock rings can be. Biggest problem these days seems to lack of tires that will fit. If that's your issue, once you're into special wheels it would be a matter of deciding on a tire size and working backward from there.
