Default Camaro wheels on Blazer

Hello from France !

I have a '00 Blazer 4 doors and I have a question.

Can I put my '98 Camaro rims on my Blazer ? It's the same entraxe (5x4.75).
What size of tires can I have for this camaro wheels in my Blazer ? I think 275/60/16 or 255/65/16.
It's the offset good or not ?
Do you think it's good or not ? Have you some picturesof Blazer with Camaro wheels ?

Thanks for your answer (scuse for my english !)

Yoann, from France.

I see you have a taste for American vehicles, that sort of surprises me.

If my memory serves me correctly, Camaro rims will stick out past the fender if you have a four wheel drive truck and you will need backspacing. Anything with the same bolt pattern will bolt up just fine. There are even some BMW rims with the same bolt pattern (or entraxe as you said).

Click here for a site that will show you the difference between your stock tires/rims and the tires/rims you are interested in putting on your Blazer.

Also, if you take a picture of the side of your truck and tell me which rims you would like, I can make a computer edited image of what your truck will look like.

Hope this helps!

EDIT: Seems like my memory was backwards. Sounds like 962dr knows what he's talking about! Either way, get some side pics up and I can help you out!

Im running 16X8 99 Camaro rims with 255/ 55 /16 General Grabber UHPs on my 96 Blazer 2 Door 4X4. Perfect fit.Now if you run them on a 2wd you would need spacers.I' m about to do a 2 inch drop to complete the look.Go ahead and put them on you' ll be impressed with the handling improvement.BTW the tires are about 27.25"tall.

I am running 16x8 Firebird wheels on my '87 S10-Blazer 4x4.
I am running 285/75R16 tires on tthose rims. To get the 33" tires to fit I ahd to install a 3" body lift and do some fender trimming. As for sticking out. Nahhhhh, not really. The Firebird wheels I have have 6" of backspacing.

Ooooh, Yoann! Be prepared to be mauled about those taillights. A couple of us Blazer owners like them over the ones we have!

EDIT: I was hoping to finish the photoedit before you got off but no such luck. Anyway, here it is. I assumed you were going to use the rims off the Camaro you have now from another post. As best as I can tell, these are the ones you have on it now. If you would like another rim, please let me know!



And since I'm an idiot and didn't read carefully enough, here's the chrome rims that you asked for:

The general rule of thumb is 4". You can mount tiresup to 4" wider then your rims size.
The tires in the above pics are 32.8"x11.3"x16" mounted on a 16" x 8" rim.
Not the ptrettiest thing, however there aren't too many fashion shows in the mud. [8D]
