The highboy is an 8 lug 6.5" lug spacing AKA 8 on 6.5". My rims are 16.5" diameter. I was told by the local tire shops to use a 16" rim instead of 16.5". I don't think a 15" rim will clear the brakes on our trucks. What size are the ones you are looking at?

They will fit, but if they're OEM, then they'll be 16" rims, and you will have to buy new tires if you currently have 16.5" tires.
