Well, I finally had a chance to swap out my rims.
I can see how badly abused the lug holes were.
(still trying to figure how to post pic's from mobile, but will upload when I find Wifi)
Although the wheels fit, only two of the four hubcap 'bumps' have a lip to secure my dog dishes.
I've already lost one of those seemingly unobtainable 4WD specific fronts.
Going to have to look on Ebay for a reasonable replacement.
Summit, U-techcenter and Repairshop Resources (valve stems) all came through Ebay quickly.
A special thanks again to Fellro for confirming my dimensions.

NOS and includes shipping... [perhaps not too expensive, but not cheap, either].
If my buddy had another one, you could have it for freight, but he does not [cannot] store lug nuts in the front ones for 4 wheel drive.
