Maybe there is a use for the 16.5 rims I removed from my truck and replaced with the Ford 16x7s. I know I doubt I ever go back for the simple reason I hate the ride the heavy ply rated tires usually give, and to my knowledge no one makes a "P" passenger rated tire in 16.5. (and price tag on 16.5) I had some 70 series P rated used tires and they give a very good ride, and will haul anything I ever plan on putting on the truck, plus I like the wider rim which helps fill out the wheel wells much better than the stock wheels did. Guess I will put them away.
