Question on wheel/tire sizes for stock 71 c10

Hi everyone - new C10 owner. I have a 1 owner completely stock original c10 long bed custom- 3 on the tree, 307, front disc brakes. Learning as i go but its a wonderful truck.

I really love the plain looking slots wheel and tire size setup on the one from the dazed and confused Cheyenne movie truck but i have no idea what size they are. I am thinking they are a 15" rim (maybe 15x8.5?) but im no expert and I know that 14" slots won't fit my truck as i tried (wouldn't clear the brakes).

If anyone has any idea what the rim size and tire size would be on this truck I would greatly appreciate it!

This is the truck for reference:

I know those are aluminum slot mags, 5 lug in 71 of course. I have 15 inch wheels on my truck that's a 1970 and they clear the drums and all. I know 15 inch wheels were stock on C10s until at least 1987. The Rally wheels for 4x4s were 15x8 from 73-87.

The 5x5 slots are kinda hard to find the dazed and confused truck looks like they could have been a 7 inch rim I think a 8 or 8.5 looks good on these trucks..
Good luck on the search.
