Default Fat spokes for replacement?

Does anyone know if there is someone that sells fat spokes to fit stock 16" rims as replacements to stock spokes? ...or if this can even be done on stock rims? I have the PC rims I want but have to have one trued and was just thinking of droppin some fats on them if i could instead! Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank

Yeah,, but every one I've seen comes installed in a rim that they will work with.

Kinda hard to put a 1/4 in spoke in a 1/8 hole.

and I don't think drilling Ur Rim holes bigger is a good Idea.
