CP, The 16.5" wheel was a size used on the 3/4 ton and up HD work trucks. Trim rings were not an option.
I know of no aftermarket supplier either. Sorry.
Maybe you would like to switch to a 16" wheel??

If I'm not mistaken, I saw the trim rings you want in a J.C. Whitney catalog?

also good luck fidding any replacement 16.5" tires without spending $$$$$$

i assume this is on a 3/4 or 1 ton, if you were closer id give you set of five std one piece 16" wheels for cheap that i dont need, and the tires on them are all nice and awesome tread. i think 265/85/16 size


good luck.
