the 16.5 is just an odd-ball rim. 16s will work just fine. and as far as i know, without goin to the custom market, you cant get the 8x6.5 lug pattern on a 15" rim. if you did go with some custom wheels and plan on runnin a similar tire size to what you have, or even as small as 31s, a set of 17s or 18s would look great. i think 19s and bigger just dont look that good on 4x4s though...
15 won't fit over the brakes front and rear....16.5 is a dead wheel size and a lot of shops won't mount them for safety reason
youre thinkin of the 16.5s with the rim lock ring. there are a lot of 16.5s that are just normal wheels, and it is no issue for shops to mount on them.
