Default Anyone have rims and body lift?

Right now I have 18" Zinik Z15's with 30" Pirelli Scorpions. I love the way the truck looks but thought about a body lift, nothing big only 2-3" lift. If anyone has a Blazer with a lift and larger rims please post a pic or twoso I have an idea on what my truck would look like. Thanks

Since you have 30's now and do a 2" body lift it'll look fine. But I would suggest getting a more aggressive tire like a mud terrain tire. But since you are a college kid, you might as well just wait and save your money till you have enough to do all this.

No skid plate. Thought about it, but I think it would look odd with the body lift I just purchased yesterday.

i didn't think you had one. i am trying to see what the 6" lift looks like with skide plate. why are you getting a body lift? and was the 6" lift worth it?

6" lift kit was well worth it. My boy has a stock blazer and it looks like a low rider compared to my truck. I sat in his truck and felt like i was sitting on the ground..lol..
