Bolt Pattern ?

Heading out tomorrow to shop for new wheels for the Jimmy- I know it's a 6 lug, but what's the bolt pattern and how are they measured? I'm gonna look at some used ones too and might want to measure. I like the way that 31X11.50 by 15's look on my truck, should I get 15 by 8 or 10's? Pretty sure I've got 15 by 8's right now...
Thanks-

You need to watch for the center hub diameter.
Ours our bigger than the newer trucks, and the newer chevy truck wheels will not fit over our hubs..

American Racing makes some nice ones for our trucks!

6 on 5 1/2", and you want 8 inch wheels with about 3 1/2" of backspacing.
