Some years back I had a LA with two rusted out rims. They weren't so bad that I couldn't have patched them but here is what I did.
Went to a salvage yard and picked up a pair of steel center rims off of New Idea corn pickers. Cut that steel disk out, and grind smooth. Then from the tire side grind out the rivets of the rotted out JD rims. Drive the rivets out of at least one of the JD brackets. Use this as a guide to drill the holes in your 'new' rims. Bolting them into the wheel center weld them through the holes that you drilled in the rim. Just keep working your way around till done. You will have rims with the correct ears and only the most thorough of the correct police will be able to tell when you get paint on it.
