Default 17-in Corvette Wheels on 2002 Chevy Blazer

Has anyone tried the 17-in Corvette wheels from the late 90s on their two-wheel drive 02 model

Corvette and Camaro rims from the late 90's will work, but you'll need significant spacers to make them work. They have the same bolt pattern (5x4.75") but the backspacing is significantly different. On a 2wd S-series the backspacing on the rim is 4.5", and on that generation Corvette and Camaro it's 6.8" backspacing. I think most people use about a 2" or a 2.5" spacer to get the right depth for a 2wd Blazer/S10.

Keep in mind that the Corvette rims are staggered, where the fronts are narrower than the rear, while the Camaro is the same on all 4. I currently run '02 Camaro SS 17x9 rims on my Sonoma, and I love the stance they give with my setup, but mine is a lifted 4x4 Crew Cab with a ZR2 axle in the rear and 1.5" hub centric spacers in front.
