Don't know if they do, but if I remember right 16.5's don't have the internal bead lip that helps hold the tire on when you're aired down. I'm pretty sure i've heard stories about guys having major problems with that.

You will have a problem being aired down on 16.5" wheels b/c as Fireball said they dont have the safety bead.  If you already have 16.5" tires contact dean at performance cryogenics in Lincoln Ca and have him make you a set of toyota centered hummer double beadlocks and never look back.
