Will these work?

Much that I'd love a set of the year one deep dish rally IIs, I haven't that sort of money. But I've got a set of 5 spoke revolution alloys which came as spares with my car when I bought it - I was told they should fit my 1980 Trans am. Stud pattern looks about right.
Using a ruler they measure 16" across the front face (inner face seems slightly smaller?) edge to edge.
Width edge to edge looks just about 8 and 3/4".
Does that make them 15" or 16" rims? and 8.5" or 9" width?
I've no idea how to measure if the offset (distance from hub to outer rim?) is correct. Anyone know?
Also, if I was to use these apart from needing a bit of a refurb, I'd need to get some of those long revolution wheel nuts - so what length, width, thread would I need to look for?
Or... should I just flog them and stick to the snowflakes?
