1. Are there any 6-bolt, 15"x8" ralley wheels that were made that were not from the '80s era that will fit the 1967 C10?

Only aftermarket "Vette" style rallies or OE steel wheels.

2. My biggest concern is the center hub section. Will the 6-bolt ralley wheel have enough mounting clearance over the front hubs (center wheel bearing area) and the rear axle centers?

They will fit fine.

3. Are there 6-bolt ralley wheel center caps made with originally with the Chevy Bowtie emblem or did they all come with open-style caps for the fronts & closed-style caps with the "4x4" circular emblems for the rears?

The caps were available with both the bowtie emblem or the 4x4 emblems. New bowtie stickers are available. All 4x4 trucks of the era had manual hubs, so the front caps were open. Any swap meet will have the closed center caps. Alot of guys run the later model 88-98 plastic caps.

4. Alternatively, I guess the 1967 C10 could use wheel adapters to convert to a 5-bolt patter ralley wheel. Anyone have issues with the adapters or conversion? If you have any photos, please share them.

Yes, you could use adapters, but I don't really care for them.
Very good info 68Stepbed ... Thanks
