Question Lost in the sauce!

Looking to buy a new set of rims/tires for my 72 4WD k5 blazer i go on the site to look up rims. They give me all these specs and I just stared and wondered how buying a new set of rims and wheels could be so complicated.

This is what they gave me and i was wondering what some of this stuff is.
I know Diam Width and lip but PCD Bore have me clueless i googled it got some clue but am still somewhat lost is there a certain PCD BORE setting i need for the K5? any advice would be great. Below are the rims i was looking at.

DIAM WIDTH PCD ET BORE LIP
17" 9.0 5/114 -12 76 1.5"

as for the wheels i am looking at

Plus i believe the rims wont work because i am pretty sure that it is a manual locking hubs

Can't help you with the rim question, but I have 33" Duratracs on my Blazer, and had 35's on my Jeep. They are my favorite tire out there.
