I have not, and I'm not sure if it's helpful to you but I do have 245/65/R17's and they're a perfect fit

the hardest part would probably be finding good looking wheels in 5x108 that are 16"

1552 are kind of cliché for fords but they look sick. They might have some 16". I bet they would fit if not with some 20mm spacers
It would be good to know what your use case is? Strictly on road, some light off-roading or possibly something a little more serious? Is the 255 width, super important or are you more interested in the 29" diameter, for it's increased sidewall height, when using a 16" wheel?
I'll address wheels first. the Tire rack currently shows 5, 16" wheels that fit and @Discount Tire shows none but they did show a fairly good number, at one time. I would search for 16x7, +30 to +40, in a 5x108 bolt pattern on Discount's site. They let me order one wheel for test fitting. As long as you don't mount a tire, on it, they will take it back, for a full refund, if it doesn't fit! The first of my 2, 16" wheel purchases was for a spare and was a 16x7, +38, Vision Cross, it fits. Very similar and they said it would fit, was their MB CRUX, also a 16x7, +38 and both have a 1800lbs load rating. Many 16" wheels have a lower load rating, some way less and I wouldn't consider lower, if off-roading is in your future. My 2nd 16" purchase was a now discontinued Method Bead grip 16x7, +30 wheel, it also fit and I mounted so 245/70/16 Nokian Outpost NAT's. Even with my 2" lift, these tires barley fit, which I attribute mainly to their +30 offset but somewhat to what I believe is their somewhat above average diameter, for a theoretical 29.5" diameter tire. The Method DX4, 16x7, +30 also fits.
Tires, one of the best A/T tires, is available, in a 255/65/16 and that's the Toyo Open Country AT3 but if you want to expand your search, to other 29" diameter tires, for 16" wheels, I think you will find many more 235/70/16's. With a +38 offset wheel and/or a lift you should be able to fit a 245/70/16 and with both a lift and a +38 wheel you should be able to fit a 255/70/16, a 30" tire.
An interesting tire, available in the very near future, is the BFG KO3 in both a 235/70/16 and a 245/70/16. https://www.discounttire.com/buy-wheels/mb-wheels-crux It says the 16's don't fit now but they did. Test fit before mounting tires.
Nokian Outpost NAT also available in a 235/70/16. Vision Cross and MB CRUX available in 3 colors

Where did you get the flag graphic on the C pillars?I have not, and I'm not sure if it's helpful to you but I do have 245/65/R17's and they're a perfect fit
I like where you put that Off-Roadeo sticker. I couldn't decide what corner but I like this.I have not, and I'm not sure if it's helpful to you but I do have 245/65/R17's and they're a perfect fit
Underground Graphics for those and the A, B and C pillar overlays and Hood
