Help with 4x4 1/2 ton aftermarket wheels

Need help finding the most reasonable new set of 16"x7 or 8" wheels that will fit on my 72 1/2 ton k5 blazer axles with the right backspace and center hole,i know the wheel bolt hole spread is 6 on 5.5 but don't know the other measurements to look for.A local guy has some eagle alloy spoke wheels he says will work with 4.5 backspace and are 6" wide for 250 for 4 but i'm scared they may not work.I have a 4"lift and 33 inch 15's now on rallys.Ithink i need at least a 89 mm center hole so the rim fits the hub,and at least 4.5 backspace?

You can look high and low for the factory option 16" wheels offered on these trucks. White spokes and other steel wheels (d-holes,8-holes) are offered for pretty cheap in 6-lug 16" and they will fit.
