tires on my current rims are oe size, different brand, but a nice e rated tire.

That size is from outside to outside. The stamp on the wheel 16x7 is from inside lip to inside lip.

I would check to make sure the offset on the new wheels will fit on your truck. I had a guy and the ford dealer swear the rims off his/a 06 f250 would fit my 2000. f250. The front rubbed against the leaf spring when turning and the right rear rubbed against the brake shield. I was able to sell and break even, but what a pain. May not be your case at all. just fyi
