Re: 16.5 rims
Are those tractor tires??? They're neat looking. 16.5" tires are becoming increasingly hard to get. Check around for bfg mud terrains or check a shop that sells interco, they still make a whack of 16.5" tires (apparently)

Re: 16.5 rims
I think you are going to have a hard time finding low profile 16.5's..

Re: 16.5 rims
Yeah
All I can find are heavy duty highway tires (8.75" wide rim max) or offroad tires. I think you can get BFG A/T's, but the smallest I found were 32/12.5/16.5...and they are pretty spendy... Posted via Mobile Device
