I had a full set of the converted Chevy wheels. These are snap-ring style rim(three pieces: wheel center with inner rim/bead, split snap ring and solid outer rim/bead). The lug pattern is a 10 bolt, much smaller hole, on a slightly different diameter circle. Five of the holes get enlarged but also offset to get the 1.5" lug nut on the PW bolt circle.
I also had the Ford AA wheels. These use the same bolt circle and lug nut as PW. However, the center hole is too small and these wheels have an issue with cracking from center hole to lug hole even before that center hole is enlarged. Then the rim width is narrow so 7.50-20 is really the biggest that could be put on so was I looking at using the center in another rim(I had a look at a set done this way using the 20" rim of a Dayton). The cracks led me to go no further with those.
