lol just had a question. Two actually.

1 how do these edits look (not the edits, but if I got the wheel in real like how would it look?)

2 are there sizes that will fit my stock tire? on this site

I can not search for 96 blazer and find the wheels to check if they will fit :|

Cragar's are probably the most widely used rim on the forum. One of the most popular too.
As for fitting your stock tire....any 15x7" rim will work.

so I don't need to worry about the thickness of the rim (to wide for tire)?

That's my bad...I thought about what I posted after I did lol. And realized it was .
I edited my original post. My bad
And BTW...Cragars look good on just about any Blazer...especially black ones IMO. As long as you don't mind having something a lot of other people have.

and...the bolt pattern is 5x4.75

Ah ok

yeah I think they look good. I don't want an off road truck but they look kind'a good on lowered ones haha.

So these would fit then? http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CRR-3975734/

lol yeah...I dunno what I was thinking in that first post. Brain fart... :P
As for those rims they will fit a 2wd Blazer (which I think yours is?). A 4x4 would need 6in backspacing.

I have a 4x4. What's a 6in backspacing?

Also is wheel spacers legal? I've seen trucks with cool wheels (15in) and their wheels stick out and it looks so cool.

Spacers are legal yes...
They don't seem to make a Cragar in a 6in backspacing. I took a loo through those pages and didn't see anything above 4.25in.

Those would work. You might have to get some spacers though to have them fit properly. It would probably take some playing with the spacer size..but I'll wait for someone else to pipe in and confirm this for sure since I've never actually researched it much myself.
I just know the stock backspacing on a 4x4 rim is 6in.
