I need 16.5's , not 16's or 15's.........I looked at that.
Not cheaper either new at the tire stores here or shipped from Summit.
From Summit:
Wheel, AR-767, Steel, Black, 16 in. x 8 in., 8 x 6.5 in. Bolt Circle, 5 in. Backspace, Each $87.95+ shipping, and not available in 16.5's
Cheapest wheel here was a 16x8 for $59+tax, then my 16.5 tire are useless. Not easy to find "new" 16.5 rims anymore. Everyone is going 16".

Here's some pics of my '68 W-200. I still have the H-1's on the back and wagon wheels on the front. I wish I could find 2-3 more wagon wheels so i could put them on the back. If i could i would get rid of my H-1 rims, i have 6 of them total I think.
On the front with the H-1's the RIMS were actually rubbing. And the guy that i bought it from had to cut a little bit of the corners off of the front of the fenders.
Where are you finding the military tires at? Im going to need a set later.
Oh and as far as grip, man it goes through mud like it aint nothing! Very happy with these tires, haven't got it stuck yet. been through some terrible stuff too. You can ask Cowboy about this truck, it performs really well with these tires on it.

think I'll go with the Toyo Open Country M/T or the General Grabber AT
in a 285/75/16 [E load range]. With center caps and chrome acorn lug
nuts, each wheel ran about $88. I chose to stay with a 16" wheel because
there are more tire choices than with a 16.5"

John , are you sure the general grabber at's are available ? I have been told that have been on back order since july 07 and wont be available till july 08. I sure would like to put a set on my W100 using the original 16" rallye wheels from my 2000 2500 ram.

You will have to use a lift kit though. I have a set of Hummer 36" tires on my 77, M882 pickup. There is no lift kit on this 4x4 and they just barely clear the fenders. Here is a photo.
