We had a 72 Dodge Van conversion with 16.5" glass belted tires. 16.5" tires became hard to find, replaced them with available fatter tires which rubbed on wheel wells when turning sharply. Do not run steel belted 16 radial tires on old wheels, unsafe. There are replacement 16" wheels with proper bolt pattern. There are also a very few 16.5" tires still available, probably old stock though. There may be info on this in the long running Dodge motorhome owners thread on this forum.
