Default wheel fitment for a 2nd gen ram what will fit?

i am looking at getting some alum 8 lug wheels for my 94 ram
they are off a 07 chevy 2500
i belive the backspacing and bolt pattern are the same
i think my steel are 16x7 and the bolt pattern is 6.5
anybody know of a website where i can confirm this?

thanks

lug pattern might be the same. i wouldnt buy them untill you know they fit your truck. another dimension often forgotton about is the wheel hub diameter. in example older ford wheels will fit a chevy but the chevy wheels wont fit the ford. most aftermarket wheels will build the hub diameter larger so they will fit all though.
