Skinny's on the front ?

I did a search for this as well to no avail.

My '75 C-10 is the new recipient of a somewhat mild 496. The leaf sprung truck is now seriously traction limited (big surprise) ---

I am now interested in taking it to the next level and a good friend of mine who is an accomplished "chassis man" has agreed to take on the challenge ---likely doing a ladder bar rear end with a 9 inch (but a 4 link has been discussed as well)

I've got an idea of what we're doing with the rear and have a solid plan, --- but now i am contemplating cosmetics, so who makes a skinny drag racing front wheel in a 5x5? (15x4 or 15 x5) and if nobody does --- is there a 5 x 4.75 rotor that will fit the truck spindle ? This is more of a late 80's style Pro-Street build than a true racing truck, so appearance is everything (read: poser) but the truck does have a little bit of heat underhood

Cutting a set down is a possibility i guess, but just figured i'd check for anything obvious first i should do instead
