Default wheel help

Besides custom wheels, are there any factory 16's with our pattern? A friend has a set of DOT Hooziers in 16" that I can pick up at a reasonable rate.

Yes, it's 5 on 4.5. The tire size is 28 x 11.50-16LT. I can probably get away with a rim as narrow as 9"

cheap = steel = heavy but for having some fun, that's not really a big deal.
