I've had a few tonners and have never seen 16s on the front. 17s all around for sure. I also have never seen a tonner pattern wheel in a 16" size. Maybe the one you were looking at had a replacement front axle from something else. James Wagner's FTS'05 pretty much confirms most of what you said, so you're not far off for sure.
