Most of us just use the 16" GM rims; still around in Junkyards and from some of us who part out these trucks.

I had to look with mre effort here locally for these 16" GM rims.
People grab them up quickly.
SICKLAJOIE posted using the 16" tire sizes on those 16" steel rims : 265/75/16 tires
Ok, thank you. Sorry for the confusion, I wasn't sure since they were F*rd wheels mentioned.

-----
After all this info, I need to look for just 16 in.x 7 in., 5 x 5 in. bolt pattern steel wheels
to put hubcaps or full wheel covers on later, with the tires mentioned. Thank you all for helping point me in the right direction!

p.s. and that the wheels in the pictures in post #1 are not stock wheels due to being 16" and not 16.5 as RPOZ11 mentioned.
