All 8 lugs wheels are not the same. The bolt pattern is but the center hole
for the hub is smaller on Chevy rims. What I have found is Ford rims will
fit on Chevy's but not the other way around. I would check that they fit
before purchasing them.

Thanks! I knowed;) there was a problem with the center hole size
but didn't know the rest for sure.
OP, my suggestion is to measure yours and write it down/memorize it
and then you'll be able to handle any situation like a ruined wheel
on vacation or whatever?
Just yesterday I discovered what my problem was (other and being
a dumbshit I mean) with the symtom of the wheel lugs being over or
uneavenly tightened.
Turns out to be my brand new Raybestos rotor I bought a year ago
or so. It looks like the original even made in canada like the
original but for one thing... The machist made it "pretty" by
chamfering the edge 3/23" where the wheel rests, so the whole
surface is ~3/16" smaller in diameter than it needs to be! No
kidding! :/ I have three orginals around here and they ain't
chamfered, the face is cut straight and left as is, kind of
square but ragged since the cast surface is the other face.
To fix it, the studs would have to be removed and the face cut
back 3/32". Weird huh? :/
Never know what you're going to find until you look huh?
