You might want to mount them before purchase to be sure that the hub holes are large enough.
If I were you I would get a set of ralleys from an early 4x4 from 1972 thru 1987.
They are available at swap meets and usually pretty cheap (in my mind)
Try to hold out or pay extra for a good clean set with the caps lugs and rings.
Be careful
These wheels do bend very easily.
I have seen super nice take off complete sets go for $200.
The newer wheels with the strange offsets will get about the same with tires.
There was also some brushed aluminum wheels that GM made. I am not sure what they were called but they were made around 84 or 85 and came in 15x8 they had circles all around the rim.
My understanding is that one year they had a brushed finish and the other year they had a finish that you could polish up to look like chrome.


Have fun
