I have 3 I'd give you but they are 17s. If you can find out if the Ford 6 lug fits ( I don't think they do) I can give you a set of four aluminum rims.

Karl, I missed out on a set of four with almost new tires for 125.00 in West Warwick... Really don't want to spend a grand on a set up right now. But do want to get new rims all around. Going to 17" would probably be better. Mine is a 2000. There was a design change in 07, so looking for 99-06 to be sure. Aftermarkets would be good, but I know there are a lot of factory rims with tires sitting in garages all over the place. Just have to make the contact.
John, thanks but not going to try to put Fords on a chevy. Insurance agent getting a call in the AM. I really think the alignment got all screwed up. I want a set ofeducated eyes on the undedrside and see what my policy will cover.
Forgot to mention, the Vt SP never did show up.

Wink I want your 2 cents

I have four tires that still have some life left but they are on Ford rims. I will check in the AM and if you want the tires you can have them for...hows $0.02 all 4 on the rims. I got a deal on C-list on a set of 4 on alloy rims with rubber ($350) and replaced all four because one of the steel rims had a slow leak. I'll take some pictures if your interested.

Thanks ec, but I'm still poking around for a set of four rims with tires, hopefully from a take off of a newer vehicle. Adjustor coming tomorrow at 7 am, so we'll see. Already had it into the shop for their numbers. Spare has been cleaned and retorqued, so am good for around town, ie. get to the beach at night, < 5 minutes. Old rims are pretty oxidized, so want to get all four. Anyone have a contact at a dealer or custom tire shop? Trying to stay with 16" wheels
