The reason I  haven't pulled the trigger on those is I was hoping to find
something  non-stock, since my car does not have a stock  look.




Generally only the early bus rims were 15 inch, or even the really early 16 
 inch, and the later ones are 14 inches. You're correct in that bug and bus 
wide  5 rims have rivited on clips, while T-3 rims don't. Like I mentioned 
before, ALL  of the others are 4 inches wide or narrower, while only the T-3 
got the wide 5  in 4 1/2 inch wide rims. There are also 2 different styles 
of wide 5 T-3  rims, solid, and slotted. The slotted ones were used up to 
63, with solids used  to 65.
 
There are only so many wide 5 rims available, and most of them are of the  
bug offset, which is basically what you currently have (wide 5, 5 spoke). 
Some  are even less than the bugs normal 34mm offset (like 23mm).
