 Not sure you will find that bolt patern in a 16x10 most 16" wheels were used with 5 on 5.5 or 5 on 5 unless you find a multi drilled set

Certain class cars need SFI cert.   Racing with these wheels have not been an issue except for their weight vs the spun type, Ran cast alu rears on my 7.0 car for over 20 years

Look up American Rebel wheels. Nice wheels. Will drill to your bolt pattern.
