So .. I am slightly a bit bummed and I really only have myself to blame but what is done is done.

So I picked up a set of stock wagon wheels for my truck under the impression they were 16" rims but upon trying to put them on my tires today well I find out that they are actually 15" rims.

Fact: Outside width of rim is not the size to fit a tire.

So now I have a conundrum... I currently have a fairly new set of 245/75r16 tires with a set of 15" rims which we know won't work.

So do I sell the 15" rims or do I sell the tires and get some 15" rubber instead?

I prefer the look of 16" rubber under a truck rather than 15" but I'm hoping for some ideas here.
