Default wheel fitment questions

well i know that my toyo m/t tires are going to wear out soon enough and have been looking into getting some new rubber and wheels. ive looked around on ebay and there are plenty of humvee tires in a 37-12.5-16.5 that are slightly used for cheap. i was originally looking to go with a 17 inch wheel instead of the massive 20 i have right now. there isnt much selection for a 16.5 inch wheel online as far as ive seen. will a 16 inch wheel fit on a 16.5 inch tire? and also i believe my 1/2 ton dodge has a 5X5.5 bolt pattern, is that right?

if you look at the sidewall of a 16.5 tire it will say in BOLD writing, "do not mount on 16" wheel". so, no, dont do it.

can you post some pics of your truck, i think it looks really good, but i cant really tell from the tiny pic.

highlight the pic in photobucket, a bunch of options will pop down under the pic, click on the lowest option, it should highlight then copy that link and post it here.
