Wheel fitment for stock '69 with six-lug - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've been lurking for a while, and I hope you don't mind if post #1 is a question. My '69 is stock with 15" six-lug wheels and 1/2" studs. Are there any gotcha's I should know about for fitting replacement wheels? Will the hole sizes work with my 1/2" studs...a search led to believe there might be an issue - if special lug nuts are needed where can I get them?

Summit has several candidates in my low budget price range, including this one from US Wheel:

Its specs are:
15X7
4.25" backspace
+6 mm offset
4.28 center diameter
60 degree conical lug seat

Will that fit? I want something that is inexpensive and will fit with minimal hassle.

Thanks

Bob
