I've been thinking about running the military tires so i need the 16.5 rim. my cousin has a set that i can get the only problem is that they are 12 inch. and i figured its not good to run a combo like that but have any of you ran this sort of combo and had good luck with it or should i rather not risk it

Summit racing sells 16.5x9.75. I had to buy them to run the military tires on my truck. I had the weld 16.5x12 and they wouldnt mount

You'll regret getting 12" rims. Humvee take-offs use a narrow rim, about 8"-9" is ideal.

The military tires i had on my truck wouldnt mount to the 12" wide rims cuz the side wall of the military 37"s are so thick

I don't think the lip on the 16.5 rim is conducive to holding a 12.5" wide tire on a 12" wide rim. Particularly since the sidewall on those tires is probably pretty stiff.
