Re: wheel offset, backspacing and bolt pattern?
First, offset and backspacing are different ways of expressing the same aspect of whether or not the wheel will clear your suspension. If you want Aero brand wheels, you need a 15x8" wheel with a 5 lug on 4.75" bolt circle, and 4.5" of backspacing. I recommend you don't put BFGoodrich Radial T/As on the front of a third gen. You can run a 235/60R15 or 245/60R15 on all 4 corners, and up to a 275/60R15 on the rear.

Oh, I neglected your other question. nearly all Chevy RWD car 15" wheels are 15x7" with a 4.25" backspacing.
