Whats up everyone! I have owned three blazer ZR2's! And I enjoy driving and working on them! My new edition I just picked up is a 2005 Blazer ZR2 with 88K on there and no rust paid little over 6,000 bucks! all the options too! I drove from MN to Southern IL for it.

The only concern I have is there is two different size tires on it! the back has p265/70R15 and the front has P265/75R15 on the front two different heights in the tires. Yikes! which running 4x4 or Auto4 would most likely cause big damage so getting tires ASAP! I figure I would just buy four new ones for it!

Welcome! The zr2 looks clean. Getting matching tires is definitely a good idea, good thing you caught that.

If that blazer has a 4 button 4x4 system , DO NOT USE THE AUTO FEATURE until you get matching sized tires ....the system will detect the different sizes as slippage and will try to correct it meaning the clutches in the T-case will be constantly slipping thus possibly burning out or causing damage.
