Yes, original rims were 16" & took either 16X6.00 or 16X6.50's (I forget;
look in shop manual. I run 16X7.50's for the greatest highway advantage).
The 15" rims, even though 6 lug, I was told came from a car (albeit older
than the AD series time frame of cars-like when both cars & trucks were 6
lug). Anybody clarify?

before that these truck came with 16" rims. I have 15" now. My main goal
is to get the correct tire height regardless of rim diameter.
