Default Overseas Blazers

Going back to recent discussions on RHD Blazers & the wider fender flares.

I was riding behind one on the motorway this morning. It had stock GM wheels. It looked stupid!

So, back to the Chevy guys to get pics of the rear end showing the stock wheels. These weren't as bad as the one I saw (probably had narrower tyres on it). Anyway here's a few pics compared to the rear view of my truck. You can see that if the flares weren't on they may have looked better. My flares actually widen the truck by 40mm (20mm each side)

LOL yeah, those are definitely flares.

I have to agree with the wider flares and narrow tires looking stupid though. I think with a decent width on the tire (not even big 32's or anything) on it it might look half decent.
