you will need at least a 16 inch rim to work on your truck. 15;s will hit the calipers and unless you shave them down...

where can you get these adaptors and how much are they? I think they should work with the right back spacing on the wheel

The wheels will stick out before the adaptors.

Probably still stick out just a little after the adaptors, but it would be close.
