BBoogie there are (were, anyways) many options for the eight lugs, at least in steel, all the way from 15" up in the aftermarket. Wheel choice would be sort of regulated by your intended use of the truck, to a degree.

As far as larger 16.5 wheels, there are 16.5x 9.75 factory style floating around, often found on the rear of camper specials. On a '74 W200 I had in a previous life I ran these all the way around, with a 12.00 tire. 16.5 are getting harder to find I hear, and would probably go to a 17.

I think this may be a byproduct of the diesel truck trend ... and then of course there are the later model factory wheels, which will need a spacer/adapter, because of the back spacing changes on newer stuff.

I recommend hub centric, it has worked flawlessly on mine. No wobbles, shakes, loose lugs, etc.
