Longhornmail,those are what I run, but I think mine look worse.
Seems like there isn't much to chose from at this size of 16.5 I saw a sharp looking wheel at this size that the owner said was called the 'hell cat" or something like that. It was a 5 spoke type of wheel. |

16.5 vs 16
IMHO, I would look at buying a 16 inch 8 lug instead of a 16.5 because the cost of tires for a 16 inch seem to be cheaper and many more sizes to choose from.

I have an extra set of wheels like Andy's, but mine look better because I sprayed them with white Rustoleum. I could be talked out of them, though. I also have gold bowtie hubcaps that fit them (9.5" diameter, I think)

Here is a set of 8 lugs off my 99 burb. Not sure if they will fit, but they are available, and i have all the hardware for them.
 Well obviosly I don't know how to do this right, but if someone else knows how and can fix this.

I've currently got what Andy is running, but I plan to buy some of these someday, when I have tons of cash lying around:
 Or perhaps  Available in 16-20" sizes.. if you've got the cash. http://www.boydcoddington.com/wheels/34ton/34ton.html

Cheap, clean & neat. What more could we ask for? They are of course, 88 & newer GM ralleys. Nice caps & rings...and they are everywhere.

MORE WHEELS
...or look at the later Dodge chrome wheels, put a GM cap on and they just look like a nice chrome directional. Again, cheap, easy to find and the chrome is much better quality than the after market.
