Tony,
I started running 16's on all my Scouts for the wider selection of tall but
narrow tires.I also found that American Racing has a 16" white spoke with
the proper back spacing and the larger center hole which is required to
clear the IH locking hub in front.
I tried using wheels for Fords,but the center hole is too small.
Even a lot of the after market 15" wheels  have a small center hole so be
sure to trial fit anything you purchase before you get home and find out it
won't work.
