What is the width of the most narrow 16" wheel and does anyone have one they'd part with ASAP?

Many Thanks

Is this a response speed test?

5-1/2 inches wide #272309, 1-13/16 offset
5-1/2 inches wide #568966. 1-5/16th offset

That offset, is that inward or outward?

I fitted a 650-16 tire to a 7" wide wheel for a spare and although the job is done, the results are less than satisfactory. I'm going on a trek next week and would like to have the proper wheel to go with the new tire.

5" is the most narrow 16" I have 5 for sale, but unfortunately I live in Europe.

Obviously I'm going to need to get an older copy of the parts catalogues since the 5 inch rim was discontinued before the one I have was printed.

Something more to put on my shopping list for next time I'm browsing a UK boot sale.

I'm in WV 25177.

My friend gave me a 5 incher so I'm set. However he's looking for three 5 1/2" wheels so 272309 would work.
