Wheel Vintiques can build whatever you want checkout their measuring guide on there site Here Get some cardboard, jack up your truck and start measuring, I spent a whole evening doing this on my truck before I ordered my rear's.
Ended up getting 15X8 Reversed one's and they came out great, I had a local shop Powerdercoat them for me.

One note I've got a later model rear axle so 15X8's might not work for you, measure to be sure.
