i have heard that 16.5 pop off too. never seen one tho.

you just cant run low air pressure with 16.5 keep them 20 psi or more youll be fine

BAD APPLE

With 16.5 rims never run ur tires under 10 psi, then keep them around 15 the only problem with running them at 15 is that's a lot higher than what u can run with a 15 inch rim the lower pressure u can run the better your tires will hook
no rest for the wicked

ive had bad luck with 16.5's even running 20psi and hitting a hard rut popped a bead, will never run 16.5's again unless i get a smoking deal on 44 inch boggers for a 16.5 rim, id rather spend an hour grinding my dana 60 calipers and running 15 inch rims!!!  just my 2cents !!
