Many years ago I had a Viscout and the rims then were Ford 5 stud. Take a rim to a tyre place and they may be able to identify them for you.

Reckon you have a ring in.
The 2 early Viscount vans we had were Holden 5 stud, took the 13" rims off and 14" went straight on.
We had a lot of problems with the 13" rims splitting under load.
Changed to new 14" with L/T tyre and no further probs.

An option is to get new hubs and bearings, with a known stud pattern, and then pick up some mags to suit, and you may be able to get some LT type tyres as
well to improve things..
