I need to buy a couple of these thick washers. They hold a wheel to the hub. Note that the wheel is clamped down with these, it is not like the usual wheels that have bolt holes.
I need to know what are these washers called so I can find where to buy them.
Thanks
Rim clamp?

No, this is not it, sorry.
They simply go on bolts like washers, but are thick and shaped to hold the rim. i
What Pete K suggested?
A picture might help...
Call around to the welding shops who do trailers, Ig. Or to local fastener supply houses. Measure one and tell them the dims.

I think that this is it, here's a picture, I forgot to attach it
calls some similar things "wheel mounting lug wedges", but they are called eccentric or non-eccentric wheel clamps, in following page.
Rim clamp wedge. Be aware that different companies made different types/sizes and shapes. If this is for a trailer, visit a trailer sales place, with the name of the trailer, who made the axle/hub is helpful as well.
Call your closest NAPA Auto Parts and ask which store in town handles the Heavy Truck Parts - there will be at least one that stocks all that stuff, learn where it is.
Plunk one of your old ones on the counter, and he'll go get the box off the shelf and ask how many you want.
