16.5s are virtually impossible to find anymore except on some trailer applications. There is no sentimental or any value in having them. A guy who has a tire shop that deals in truck tires (mainly to local dump truckers and some others) says he could get them if asked but at nearly $200 a piece,,jeez I can get 235 85R 16s on line for slightly more than half of that !

It's not an old thread… it's a history lesson.
