Default Rim Help!! Please

I currently have the stock 20" rims on my truck but looking for something alittle different and stumbled across these for sale. They are cheap, i was thinking with a bit of work (sanding and paint) they could look good. Will these fit on my truck? They are originally from a Jeep CJ. Bolt pattern is 5 x 5.5" 15x10 rims. And what Tire size do you guys reccomend?

+1 you're gonna need a 17" rim to go around the brakes and suspension. Stock 20" rim's run 33" tire and unless you're gonna use wheel spacers or have a rim with 4.5" I wouldn't go much wider than somewhere along the 11.5" wide range IMO.
