ok, well i bought 30 inch yokahama at-s's got em for like 120 a piece with a rebate. I fit the back ones on no problem, just the fronts i had issues. I ended up taking a hammer and a peice of wood and modifying my fender wall. It fits great and you cant hardly tell. Im just goin to save up for a susension lift now. I still want to do both. Il post some pics.

That's the spirit! If they still rub just do a mild trim job like this...

im probably just goin to save up for a 2'' suspension lift, because i find myself trying to take my blazer offroad alot. And yea.. ha..it took me like 5 minutes of staring at my fender with a hammer in my hand trying to decide if it was a good thing or bad thing to do..but i decided i wasnt driving a lexus so i had at it.
