Default Score!!

I love craigslist lol

I found someone parting out a ZR2 and he said he would sell me the tire carrier and the 31" spare for 50$ Which IMO is a steal. So i went and got it like any smart person would do.

I could get the tire carrier from Pick N Pull for 20$ but then the 31" tire and rim would be at least another 50-100$

What kind of wheel is it? Just curious. And I think that is a score! Nice find! I got my zr2 carrier back in the day for either $35 or $40, but it was from a guy on craigslist and it was in good condition. Did he have the fender flares left?

I think the tire is just the standard 31" spare, but the Wheel is just a ZR2 rim which i believe is also standard? ha i dont remember.

And he only had fenders left on the rear, the whole front end was replaced with the 4DR version unfortunately.

I just went and looked at the tire again, and its a brand new BFG radial long trail T/A. you can even still see the residue from the stickers. No dry rot cracks so its a pretty good tire

Now i just gotta find time to put the tire rack on hopefully by the end of this week.

Here's the ad ha you can see it on the other blazer for now Craigslist: 99 ZR2 Blazer

I also told him to go fix his ad. last time i checked blazers dont have a 4.7

But he said the blazer went through a house and he was going to fix it but the frame was bent.
