question about steel rims for an 86

One of my steel rims that I use for winter driving has rusted out and needs to be replaced so I have a few questions:
1) Is anyone familiar with the steel rims that fit on an 83 that have a "squarish" hole pattern around the circumference instead of the 20 or sociruclar holes? I was quoted by one place that they had these. The bolt pattern, offset and size would be same so its an aesthetic issue;
2) Does anyone know if the spare wheel rim would match up with a regular tire. A quick look shows its has about 1/2 the number of circular holes but would the offset and rim size should be same?
3) Finally my local tire place orders rims on the basis of the make of the vehicle not the rim's specs. So I am wondering what makes of vehicles also had the following specs: 400 MM offset, 15 by 5.5 in dimension with 4 by 4.5 lug pattern and 71 mm bore.
In other words - other makes matched up with front handbrake 900 rims.
