I have done that before and used split rims too.
I suggest using normal wheels removing the wheel from the car and taking it to a tire shop.
Problem is tire shops hire some people who are kind of dumb, or don't care and they will put a jack under the quarter panel.
If you care about your car some you will jack from a structural point.
Trucks have frames that go from corner to corner so it's not a big deal.
I also recommend using a torque wrench to apply a recommend torque to each lug and apply it evenly.
