Re: 16.5 x 9.75 steel wheels
The best off road tires are still made in 16.5...Interco (swampers/boggers),Gateway(Monster Mudder/Ground Hawgs),and BFG hasn't completely stopped yet. 9.50-16.5 street tires are around for 2wds if you look hard enough.
I went into the shed to look at the wheels and ended up in a major organizing fit...and never looked at the wheels.I'll have to look. You have to watch the Ford wheels. They used inside nubs you can barely see...could be mistaken for no nubs. Offsets varied,too. The ones that were used on the rear of C/30s and some C/20s had less back space to offset the stance more. I have a pair of those off a '72 C/30 SRW.
