Factory rims from 92-98, tons of them made, but a little tough to find good loose center caps for 'em. Earlier years in that range had the cap with 5 fake lug nuts instead of being smooth.

Those 7.75" ones in the pic are the larger ones for the 6 lug 4x4 wheels. Nice price though. The ones for a 2WD are 7.5"

Be sure to look at the Astro vans too, because they also were available with that wheel (optional, but factory) for several years. Astro vans went through three lug patterns all in the same basic body style. 5x4.75, 5x5, and 6x5.5!
