Thanks for the info. The reason why i asked is because there are plenty of Humvee tires and rim packages in ebay for roughy $400. Size is 36/12.50/16.5
with 8 on 6 1/2 lug patern. I wonder if the rims have enough room for the brakes. Will it work???

16.5" is too small. 17" is the minimum wheel diameter to clear the calipers.

thats too bad coz for $400 it's pretty cheap to have a set of good off road tires and they're run flats too.
