Question- How to find rims? 1952 3/4 ton Chevy

I've got a '52 3/4 ton Chevy, and I am trying to find the specs for the rims as the ones I have are a poor fit.

I can't seem to find any kind of table breaking out the rim sizes for this era. I know there's a lot of "well, the rims from a '62 - '84 something-or-other should fit on yours just fine", however, if I am buying them in a pile in someone's garage, I am not going to know for sure where they came from, so being able to measure them and make sure would really help.

Does anyone have a link to that kind of information?

The rims on my truck now, which came with it- they look great, and of course they're a front and rear set (to fit over the hubs), and when I got it, they had the fronts on the rear, and vice-versa. I had to pull the axle to get them off the rear, and once I swapped them around, it turns out the offset is different on the 'front' ones, and they hit the tie rods. So I can't move the thing until I get a proper set of rims.
