The above link posted are for 16x7 Ford wheels, which are for a K20 (8 lug). He needs 6 lug wheels.

You best bet is a set of 15x8 CUCV wheels, which came on military Blazers from 1984-86 or 87. They have 3.75” backspacing and fit perfectly. My experience (and some others as well from what I’ve read) is that the aftermarket wheels have too much backspacing and hit the tie rods. I have not heard of any issues with caliper clearance.
