Default Tires and wheel spacing ???? help

I am new to this website, and I own a 2000 Chevy Blazer LT 4x4 4-door loaded, completly stock except 5% tinted windows. I would like to get some bigger new tires and space my wheels out a little, I believe the rear wheels are nnot as wide as the fronts, so i would like to get wheels spacers for the rear and maybe the front to, to make it wider to. Also i would like to get some bigger tires, and just seeing what size i can fit, and brand and nodel reccomendations, use is for every day drivinf, but want a mean muddy tire look.

So ? is, where and what wheel spacers, also would it look weird spacing the wheels out on stock?

Also, tires, what tire size can i fit with out rubbing on my stock 15 inch wheels.

Thanks

If you mean the biggest size tire he can go w/o rubbing issues is 30x9.5x15, you're correct. Stock tire sizes for the 2nd gens were 235/75/15 or 215/75/15.


There was a recent thread about the uneven wheels from front to back and it was said that 1.25" spacers in the rear will even it out.

Smile Question on spacers and tires

I bought my '99 2wd Blazer back in March. Just recently had to have a plug put in a tire and was told by Discont Tire that I had .25" spacers on my fronts and that my rims were not appropriate for the Blazer because the wheel was too close to the control arm. I had plans to replace all my tires soon here anyway since their well worn but I really didn't have plans to replace the rims they look great, far as I can tell they look like 058 series Eagle Alloys 15". The tires on it now are P235/75/R15. I don't seem to be experiencing any rubbing/excess wear so I don't know if they were just full of huey since the guy tried to just make it out like I was going to buy rims from them right then and there. I was planning on getting BF t/a ko's same size. You guys think I'll have any issues with that? And if I need to get new spacers what would you recommend?

Thank you ahead of time, really appreciate the help.
