Default 16" spoked alloy wheels OEM

Hello, Trying to find which OEM (Factory)wheels fit my 2004 4dr,4wd Blazer.I am specifically looking for 16" 5 spoke
but any OEM alloy wheel info would be appreciated. 5 lug x 4.75 bolt circle.
I heard that some Firebird and Camaro wheels would fit but I am not sure which years and styles.(Formula Firebird ?
IROC Camaro ? )
My Blazer has 4 wheel disc brakes as I believe all 2004s do.
I am trying to save a few bucks PLUS be able to find a replacement if a wheel ever gets damaged.
I feel aftermarket wheels go out of production so fast that if I ever needed to replace a wheel I may not be able
to find one.

The Camaro/Firebird rims should fit on any 4x4 model or so I have read around on the net. I have been looking for a set of these:

Or actually may just buy a set of Blacked out steel rims to entirely black out my truck.

Can't beat these at at $50 each, only problem is the 16x8 rims have a 4-1/2" backspacing which I don't think is correct for our application.

Check this site out for wheels that might fit your Blazer. I remember another site claiming that the 4X4's needed a wheel more like a FWD for offset numbers....so the Camaro wheels might only fit certain model 4X2 Blazers????
