Just go to a tire/wheel online retailer, find out what wheels they sell that will fit the same year corvette, that will get the range of backspacing used (and bolt pattern) then go see what they will sell for the truck, see how close that is

I just tried a c4 wheel on my 02 s-10. The bolt pattern is the same but looks like it would need about 2" spacer for the offset to clear the control arms on the front suspension.

bull****.. 84 c4 rims with fit a 2wd s10. 88 and up or whatever year they changed the offest will only bolt on to a 4wd and would need the spacers for a 2wd.

2wd s10 - 38mm backspacing
4wd s10 - 56mm backspacing
84-87 c4 38 mm backspacing
88-96 c4 - 56mm backspacing

pr0zac, handy info, have an 87 and the aftermarket wheels it came with are not supposed to fit an 87 according to American Racing, but this 87 has, among other parts, 90 spindles, brakes, shocks etc, explains why then site nearly perfect.
