Here's my addition. When I got my Blazer, it had 4 inches of lift and some 30x9.5.15 Cooper STT tires. Now it has about 8.5-9 inches of lift with 31x10.5x15 tires. It's got a solid axle swap in the front, the previous owner chose to use Jeep axles. So far, things seem to be doing well.

that thing needs some bigger tires! at least 33s, i wouldn't go any bigger with those axles unless they are dana 44s but it definitely needs bigger tires

I had a line on some 33x12.5x15 but the guy flaked on me. I was going to trade him the 6 31s I have for his 4 33s and 50 dollars. I think a 12.5 may be too wide, so, I'll see if I can find some 33x10.5x15s

i don't think the 12.5s will be to wide i think you should be fine. you could probably fit 35/12.5s easy and you could still probably fit 37s if you really wanted to. when they put in a solid axle did they move the axle forward at all moving the axle forward 2 inches makes a big difference.

It looks like the axle is a little forward in the wheel well. That's part of the reason I'm not sure if a 12.5 wheel would fit, I may rub the front bumper when I turn.

i think you should get the 12.5s and if the plastic part on the bumper still rubs just trim it a little, if u do it right nobody will know u trimmed it. and you'll only rub when your off road either way

I probably will get 12.5s and if it sticks out, I'll get some ZR2 fender flares. I'd like to get a set anyhow, but have yet to find any for a reasonable price.

Didn't cut the fenders yet. Waiting on my 1.25 in. wheel spacers
