Alum Wheels for a 73 Safari

I’m looking to replace the wheels on my 73 Safari and am having a hard time finding wheels the correct size with the correct weight capacity. The service manual I have calls for a 15 X 7 wheel with 6 lugs on 5.5 inches, with 4.25 hub opening and a 0 offset..
I’d like to replace the ugly steel wheels I have, with aluminum ones, but haven’t found any that meet all the requirements. Does anyone know of some sources where I might find something that would work?
Would it make a difference or cause any problems if I went with a 15 X 6 wheel?
Thanks, Jim
