Default Five lug vs eight lug

Bought this truck, 1999 Ram 1500 quad cab 4WD, a couple of weeks ago. Don't really like the mudders that are on it and want to go to more of an OEM wheel/tire but the price was decent. Wheels are 15 inch American Racing with 32 x 12.50 Mud Dawgs.Two of the tires are two months old, maybe 500 miles on them. Seller had receipt from local tire dealer.I thought no problem, I'll just go to a junkyard, find four with decent tread and nice wheels if I'm lucky. No way! It seems that 5 lug wheels are practically non-existent in junkyards but that is all I see on all the trucks on the road. Just wondered if this is local or what the deal is with8 lugs.
