Default Aftermarket Wheel fitment on early Defender

I understand that finding aftermarket wheels for my early Defender 110 (with rear drum brakes) is a difficult task. Does anyone know of a 16x8 wheel that will work with drum brakes? Finding wheels that are 5 x 6.5 bolt pattern is difficult enough as it is.

Anyone know if ProComp Series 87 Rock Crawler wheels with 4.75" backspacing will do the trick? Good looking wheel, inexpensive, and most importantly its 16x8, 5x6.5 bolt pattern.

Thanks.

P.S. Found a decent selection of wheel adapters/spacers on www.roadkillenterprises.com They have quite a few 5 x 6.5 to ... adapters available. Anyone ran a set of adapters without having issues? They have adapters for many popular 5 lug bolt patterns, which would open the door to A LOT more wheel choices.
