change 17" wheels?
I'm new to this forum, and haven't found an answer by search. Does anyone know if there are 16" wheels to fit an '03 3500 dually? If possible, I'd like to change to 235x85x16 tires.

Thanks for the help. Guess I'll just stick with the 17's.

I had to shave one of my rear calipers in order for the wheel weights to clear on my new H2 rims.. 16s definitely wouldn't work.....
