I think the reason for a lack of aftermarket off road accessories for blazer's is the fact that most owners are broke or cheap or both,

Was running the wagon wheels for almost a year and 33's

[IMG][/IMG]

the lug centric wheels were driving me nuts. So i found a good deal on craigslist for some 4th gen wheels. Didn't really want to go with 17's but I think they look awesome. Of course the stock wheels sat way to deep in the fender flares so I had to get some wheel spacers. Having no rear bumper was driving me crazy too so I decided to put the stock ones back on and fix the rust holes with some metal tape until I decide to get an aftermarket bumper. My next thing to get is 285/70/17's which I should have ordered by the end of the week. My wheel wells are feeling pretty empty.

Never really posted a lot of pictures of my truck and its not completely ugly right now so enjoy. Also anyone know where to find a fender flare to replace my missing piece? I've been looking on the web with not very good luck.

I'll probably pick up a set of 33's at some point but the tires I have are still like brand new and it doesn't look that bad with the 31's.

here is a pic compared to my blazer (1 mud tire and 3 bald 235's) I have a little over 2" more ground clearance with the 4runner.

yeah its sad to see it their like that all stripped of its goodies she must feel unwanted, YOU JERK!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

the blazer is probably sitting in a junk yard somewhere now, my girlfriends dad sold it to a mechanic he knows and I'm pretty sure the mechanic scrapped it
