What width are stock rims with 265/75/16's?

Howdy all,

I am going to pick up a plain steel wheel from a wrecking yard tomorrow for use as a second spare tire before I go hunting next week. I want to get an identical Michelin tire for it as the stock ones on my truck. I know it's 16", but what is the width? I tried to measure the ones on the truck, but it isn't precise. It looks like either 8 1/2" or maybe 8 3/4"............

The stock tires I have are 265/75/R16 Michelin LTX M/S's

Thanks all,
Tom
