You've got the nicest looking blazer out there!
Im only 15 and making $8 and hour so I cant really do anything to mine yet, but I kind of want to go for the blacked out look. I just painted my bowtie black today. Cant wait to see more!

Thanks! That's where it all starts! I started saving at age 15 and bought the blazer then first thing I did was paint the bowties and it all spiraled out of control from there as you can see!

Got my rims back already. I would definitely recommend Wheel Works in Edmonton. Got them back exactly a week after I dropped them off, which is faster than expected and it was cheaper than expected too. That and they did a great job and customer service was awesome. One of my better blazer shopping experiences for sure.

Very nice! Were you able to get them powdercoated or are they painted like that? I'll have to keep Wheel Works in mind if I decide to have mine done. I was thinking of doing something very similar to what you did.

They are just painted. I mentioned to the guy what I intended to do and he said they could paint then clear coat them. Said they do it a bunch and under normal conditions the paint won't come off. It was a lot cheaper this route too!

If you do google them you should know that they have moved! I drove all the way out to their old location.

Well it looks like Wheel Works did a great job and your wheels turned out excellent. I'm excited to see them on you ZR2! Do you have tires for them already?

I'm not sure what I'm going to do. My brother found a good deal on a S10 Crew Cab and he's trying to talk me into selling my Blazer and getting that. Even if I were to switch to a CC I'd probably keep my Camaro wheels, and just find a set of 31's to put on my Blazer when I sell it.
