Hubcap ?
 
I saw these hubcaps and I noticed they are 16.5's

I have read that these will fit a 16" rim and I have read that chevy made a 6 lug 16 and 16.5 rim but I don't know if they ever made a 5 lug 16 steelie rim...maybe in the 80's? Does anyone know for sure?

I know for a fact you could get 16 inch 6 lug on these trucks.
That cap isn't for these trucks though. the yellow trim makes it 73 - 76-ish

Those covers were only made for 15" wheels.In 5-lug I`m 99.9% sure 15"is all the factory offered.There were 5-lug 16.5s in 8.25 and 9.75 made by wheel manufacturers,just not available through GM.In 6-lug GM did offer 16" stock width wheels.They also ended up offering 16.5 x 8.25s on Blazers and K/10s to accomadate the 10.00 flotation tire option.The wheels themselves were not the option,just requires for that tire.GM never offered wider tires/rims for 2wds back then.
