Default Rims for an 89 s10 blazer

The guy at my local tire warehouse told me he couldn’t get any rims for my 89 because of the lug size and it was “impossible“ to do it at all. Just looking for steel rims, black, nothing ridiculous. Have any of you found brands that work easily?

Sounds like he was being lazy...

They can sometimes be difficult to find because of the lug pattern, 5x4.75, but certainly not impossible.

Depending on how nice your want your rims to be, I'd try to source them at a local wrecking yard.

Keep in mind that the rims for the 2wd and 4wd Blazers have different back-spacing so be sure to specify what you need.

BTW, I've seen new rims for sale online, including steel ones.

Good point Christine


If you have a 4x4, you can actually run some GM car wheels. I have a set of Firebird 16's with some AT's on them as my "highway tires"








I use to have chrome ones too lol
