If you are going to be wheeling it, be really careful with 16.5" rims. They have a different bead style than 15's or 16's and do not lend themselves to airing down. That rim was designed for "work" trucks running specific tires at fairly high pressures.

I am not sure why you would choose to go with 16.5's, but to each his own. That's a seriously wide tire... planning on doing some snow-shoeing? Or do you just like the wide track look? Either of the sizes you mentioned are going to give you some serious floatation in mud, but you are going to have problem with rubbing on turns.
