16" wheel tech/spec ???

I picked up a 255/85R16 tire today for a spare. I am looking for a rim/wheel that is 16x7 with about 3.75"-4.25" backspacking.
What 16" wheel has a backspacing of around 4"? this is for a spare tire, so looks are not important. Also the 16" has to fit, my Tacoma came with 15x6s stock.

I know the 95/96 stock 16" wheels have a back spacing of ~4.75. (i have read)

I currently run 33x10.50r15 on 15x7 Split-4 stock alloys (used ~88-95) with a backspacing of ~4.25".

why do you want a 16" wheel if you have 15" tires?

cause my spare tire is a 16"... I recently got a 255/85R16 BFG MT KM with about 10,000-15,000 miles on it for $5, yes $5.

My current spare tire is a bald 225/75R15, so the little 28" looks funny next to a 33x10.50...

The 255/85R16 measures out to be a 33.1x10 and the 33x10.5R15 measures out to a32.8x10.5.
