I'd love to put some torque thrust style wheels on my Jimmy, but I don't think anyone makes them in 8-lug. Anyone know if they do?

Someone made a style like that more recently, but i don't consider that much like the torque thrust.

yeah they kinda got eclipsed by the Classic II


as for the "torque thrust" I have seen six lug versions but never an 8-lug you could always get 6-lug hubs for your axles
