Default Slow high school budget built

Bought my 97 blazer 4x4 over summer. Went from a small block to this. Hated it. Its growing on me though, i started doing some little appearance things to it. I liked the all black for awhile but ended up taking the tint off the headlights because of the horrible visibility and i grew old of it. Anyway i plan to start going deep into this build once i can get some money flowin. Want to get some All terrains or Mud tires (whats your preference?? keep budget in mind) and add a leaf to it. Roof basket and lights far down the road.Heres some b4 and after pics. Thanks for lookin guys i will post all updates in this thread. BTW only paid 1k for this blazer

Looks like a solid fountain! I'll be watching what you do with it. As far as tires go it really depends what your intended use is for the truck of which tires you should go with.

Default Update. Spacers/Tires

So i took all the badges off, and the mudguard thing under the front bumper.
Just put some 30 in K02s on it and 3 inch spacers on the back, 2 inches in the front. Rubbed a decent amount at first but did some trimming/banging with a hammer. Liking the way its starting to look. Rims and lift in the future

It looks good with those tires. If you get rid of the front spacers it may not rub as much. It would also help your ball joints last longer. I like black 4 door blazers.
