Up North where I am, you never see Xtreme Blazers, maybe because there isn't even a 2wd Blazer I've seen in town... NO WAIT! There's one, and it's lifted (to the point where I can walk under it) lmao. There's maybe 2 or 3 Xtreme S-10's but that's it. Up until I joined here I had no idea GM even produced Xtreme Blazers.

Sad isn't it? I was a sheltered Blazer owner.

Its funny cause Sudbury isn't even that north lol. There's a few xtreme's running around here, but you're right oktain...they're more rare in Canada.

With respect to Toronto and Southern Ontario, we're pretty north lol. In this province we're considered the northerners... but back on topic...
Any future plans for your red-devil sinnervision?

And non-existant in the Southern hemisphere.

I love the bumpers & side thingys below the doors. Not that I could fit them on my truck with the nerf bars on. Probably dont make those kits for 4doors anyway.

There was talk of getting them off of an S10 Extreme and modifying them to fit. Forget which thread though.

thanks for all the comments guys! when i first saw it from the road, i thought the wheels were aftermarket. but then i looked it all over and noticed the chevy bowtie on the center caps. a friend of mine with an older blazer thats on frame dropping bags is jealous cause mine came with the wheels. said he had been wantin some for his, but can never find any at all. it is rare to see/find these wheels i take it?

as for how much mine is dropped....im not positive yet. ive measured the rear blocks, and they are 3". the front sits a bit lower than the back. so i guess i have a 3 3 drop ??

the zq8 wheels you have are relativly rare and if you do find a set for sale the price is usually pretty steep. as for the drop the xtreme and zq8 models sit 2" lower than regular blazer so if the previous put a lowering kit on you probaly have close to a 5" drop compared to a regular blazer. lol if been looking for a set of those wheels that are priced decently for almost a year so consider yourself very lucky

I've been looking since I got my Blazer and haven't found any. Rare is an understatement lol. Expensive is also an understatement. People usually want your first born child for those rims

I know what you mean, I was looking for the ZQ8's to use as summer rims, I ended up buying some YC5's from a junkyard to use as winter rims lol. The price was ridiculous, they wanted my first and second born.
