Haha well I've been wanting to get a new set of rims for a while and I may actually have the $ to do it soon, so:

Any rim experts find me a set that is 15"x"7, 5x4.75" bolt pattern, and backspace close to 6" no less than 5"

Or vote for one of these

Just to clarify something, number one would actually "sit in" more than number 2........ the ones of number 2 that I would get is not the exact one in the picture, it would have more positive offset.

definatley go for the welds on that blazer. should look awesome.

i'd personally do them in black with some meaty tires. not sure what you could fit under there.. maybe 33's or so with minimal rub.

however the chrome will also look good with the chrome accents, just harder to keep clean.

Haha I like chrome...... black can look good but I just don't know if it would on this vehicle, stock height.

Also the tires I have are 235/75/15 and I'm keeping them...... 30"s are the biggest that will fit without lift, not much bigger than what I have.



But yeah, I'm really leaning toward the Welds (#2) because the first ones have a lower offset and I think they would make the wheels stick out too far...... even the welds will stick out 1" more than stock.......

I've had a hell of a time finding non-ricer 5 spoke rims with a high enough offset. In fact those are really the only ones.

30s are the biggest you can fit? huh, i wouldnt have guessed that. i have 31s on my play time jeep and it's stock height, and that thing looks like it has bigger wheel wells than the jeep does. but anyway, yeah chrome will look good with the chrome accents on your car. gooo for it.

Oh I know, I meant 30"s are the biggest that will have no rubbing.





" i like number 1 "

Haha I do too hunter but I think they would stick out too far, thats why I'm leaning toward #2
