    Looking to get one 16 inch rim so I can use a newer light truck (used) tire for a cheap spare for a 34-9.5-15. My question is are there differrent width stock steel 16 inch wheels? And do you think a 5 inch width would work for a 9.5 wide tire? Anyone have on for sale?

    The stockers were 4.5 or 6 inches wide IIRC. Mike Boyink may still have some 16" single wheels for sell.

    4.5" or 5" are what I know about for sure. Billy has 9.5 swampers.

    Sent Billy two after measuring. 4.5" or 5" hard to tell.

    Inside bead to bead is the correct way to measure.
