Id buy spinners with thornbird side lugs. Xtr3me!
btw, go with 16 or 17" rims instead of 16.5. Im starting to see less and less new tires being produced in the 16.5 rim size. 16 or 17 seems to be more common but there are still plenty of 44s for 16.5.
Most notable difference is the lack of an inner lip on the bead. Makes it tough to run your tires less than 15psi without blowing one off the rim.
What you want is steelies. Cheap and plentiful. I paid $80 for 4- 16.5x14 steelies used and $75ea for 4- 16.5x12 steelies new (but I bought white. Black was $98 iirc so I painted them
)

cuz, you REALLY need to do some searching and become familiar with some terms before asking questions. Luckily I like you so I wont tell you it stands for Ball Sweat.
