Alan,

I went through a similar situation with my BJ8 years ago.  I needed to
widen the stance a bit to keep tires from rubbing the inner fender
well.  The bolt pattern is definitely a Chevy or GM bolt pattern - 5
inch.  But be aware of something - your studs are 7/16 in size and
those of the GM are 1/2.

I had a local machine shop to fabricate 1/4 inch thick spacers in the
end.  I would not go any thicker.
