I believe 16" wheels will only fit on the front. The rear drums on 2005+ 1/2 ton trucks are too big.

Yes they will fit. My boss had 16's on a 2005 GMC with no problems so I don't see why not.

Its a possibility if I can find the ones I like I'll get rid of mine...I want some KMC Venoms or I seen some cool lookin 17" Cragars on ebay tonight. SouthSide had a white chevy with some 16" venoms the other day...that truck is drivin around with stock wheels now so maybe they'll sell them to me...

well a 16" steel wheel from an '04 won't fit the front. I'm hoping those chrome ones do.
