Wheels for 36x12.5 r16.5 Goodyear Oz militarys?

Ok so I was informed recently that Chevy never produced a 16.5 in rim with 6lugs. Now I'm onto buying some cheap wagon wheels the proper size. I found two types one 9.75 wide and one 8.25 wide. Which one should I go with?

9.75= http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

8.25=

PS: Why do the 9.75's say no tires over 33's?

16.5" rims do not have the safety beads that regular rims do, therefore, i would run the narrowest rims available in order to avoid losing beads. the best rims would be a set of the hummer rims that the tires were intended for and have them recentered with the proper 6-lug pattern.
