How wide are you looking for? I have a set of old school aluminum Welds 16.5" x 14" wide......

If you have the opportunity to go to 16" wheels, I would just go that route. 16.5" wheels and tires are way to hard to come by, especially in quick fashion when you are jammed up.

You might even look into some stock 16" or 17" 3/4 ton truck take offs.

16.5" wheels hold the tire bead at a 60 degree (approximately) angle and therefore allow the rubber to spin or come off easier. That is why the offroad guys used bead lock screws back when 16.5"s were the rage.

16",17", 18" all have right angle shoulders to hold the tire better.
