    Yea. I was a bit confused. I thought he just left the quotation off the left side of 16" by the rest of his wording.

    They all fit as long as you select the right rubber to go with it.

    You 'might' find a larger variety of tire choices in 16", although 15" is ok, depending on what kind of tire you need for your usage.

    "Later" 16" steel. And like @Clearwater Bill said, the tire size matters. I have 285s and need 1.5" spacers to clear suspension parts and avoid/reduce the tire rubbing on the frame.
