i have 83 chevy dually it has 235/85r16 wheels on it i am buying used wheels to replace bent ones but they are 16.5's he has 4 of them will they work on the back 4 with no problem? if the front 2 stay at 16"?
 
Yes, they will work, but the price you pay for 16.5" rubber will make the cost of four new 16" steel rims a real bargain, real fast. IMHO, you should do some serious research on tire pricing before you go with the 16.5" 's.
 
I have a set of 16.5's that were on my 66, I couldn't find tires for them. I switched to 16's. I got the complete set of 6 wheels for $125. You can find them if you look hard enough.
