Yeah, I got a friend that has irocs on his Blazer, so I know the issue.
The front suspension is more narrow than the rear on the old Camaro, so the front wheels have more backspace than the rear to make the track even. The fronts are pretty much flush, though.

Thanks man! I'm still debating on the lift. The more I look at Sisk's truck with 30x9.5s the more I'm thinking I'll just go with that size tires on the Irocs that way it fills out the wheel wells. Right now I really think I have too much gap between the tires and the fenders.

Originally I was going to fly low with my truck but there isn't a point to lower it 2 inches. I'm thinking safari bar with lights and some beefy tires on some different wheels. I'll be watching for ideas and maybe steal some from you haha

UPDATE! Got 2 of the rims sanded yesterday, working on the other 2 today. Ordered some flexible tape. Also, was throwing a P0155 code. Switched the sensors and sure enough the code showed up on the other side, so bad O2 sensor. Just bought the replacement from AC Delco. Hopefully I get that soon so my MPGs don't continue to suffer. Next up new plugs, wires, and rotor cap. Might as well give it a tune up before continuing on the want list.

Got the rims prepped, just gotta get that flexible tape in and tape off the chrome on the Irocs.

Also, the gf had me make a list of everything I wanna do, so first page has been updated.

I'm only messing around. Mine is pretty cool but refuses to buy me anything car related i.e. audio/visual(my true passion), lowering parts, replaced parts (even when she broke them), but happily will spend $100 on a ring that i rarely wear.
