16" steel wheels

I'm looking to go to a larger size tire (taller) and the local tire shop suggested looking for a 16" rim to replace the 15" as there are a larger selection of tires available. Where can I find a stock looking 16" steel rim that has the bolt pattern (5) that's currently on my 75 F100? I prefer the plain steel stock appearing rim. Will it allow me to use the small center hubcaps? Thanks

i cant say for sure but try a junkyard. The mid 90s trucks still have the same bolt pattern. I picked up a steel 8 lug rim off of a 90s F250 that for all purposes looks the same as the original steelies that came on my highboy. I think it was like 15 or 25$ also. Wierd that the tire shop asked you to go get a rim...you think theyd be more inclined to help you find it or find it for you and give you a total cost...but what do i know...i just like ford trucks
