D5 change 20 inch to 16 steel to enable use of T245/75/16 A/T Maxis. Doing Simpson etc. These tyres are on my off road van. Rims are 6 stud.Been advised against adaptor/spacers.
Space for brake calipers seem to be the problem.

I think Tuff Ant do an 18" Wheel for the D5 which is the smallest rim you can go, if the Tuffant 18's fit over your calipers.

I ran a 275 55 20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my D5 when i had it.

You wont get 16's on full stop, 18's are your best option.

of course the Tuffant 18’s will clear the calipers. They are made specifically for that purpose.

Some models need a "Brake Kit",so they will fit.
