You are mixing measuring systems.

It's 6.5" inches which equals 165.1mm (millimeters) {6.5 * 25.4 = 165.1} for the bolt pattern for our wheels.

At the end of the summer will be time for me for new tires and wheel upgrade (going with 2008 H2s) I think. My spare (knock wood) has never been used. I have cranked it down only once it the nearly four years I have owned the truck. So I will acquire only four wheels and five tires and reuse the spare stock rim.
