M1101/2 Trailer 8 lug to 6 lug adapter questions...

[TacticalDoc]

I have an M1101/2 trailer coming next week. It will be for my 2010 Silverado 1500 which has 6x5.5 lug wheels (tires are 33" or 285 70 17). I have questions regarding 2 things:

1. I want to have the same tires and rims on the M1101 as I do on my Silverado. The reason for this is to have extra spare tires, look the same as the other tires, and lower the trailer bed so its not tilted forward. To do this I need 8x6.5 to 6x5.5 lug adapters but the place I'm buying them from wants to know the hub dimensions (circumference and length). does this make sense since the wheels are lug centric and not hub centric? Does anyone know the Hub Size (diameter and length)?

2. Will an 8 inch plate for my pintle hitch be enough or will I need a 12 inch plate?

if there are other suggestions please let me know what you think.

EDIT:::
If I go with standard 8x6.5 chevy rims do the just bolt on? I might just do this since its easier.

GM 8 x 6.5 will bolt right on. As for adapters there should be no problem bolt them on and go. are the ones you found two piece?

I found these two adapters:

I would really like to have the same size tires on my trailer as I do on my truck with same lug pattern. i just want to make sure it doesnt need modification...just bolt on
