tire question
Sorry to hear of your lose.
30" is the largest size tire without lift. The larger the wheel, 16"-20" etc, the thinner the side wall.
If your going with aftermarket wheels, be very carefull of the backspacing. Our trucks are extremely sensative to it. The stock wheels run 6" of backspacing. I have a set of Firebird wheels on my '87 S10-Blazer 4x4. They also have 6" of backspacing, and are 16x8" rims. Check out Corevette wheels as well, they have the same bolt pattern, 5x4.75" as the S10's, there are a few other vehicles with it as well. Very posible to find a stock wheel that will suit your needs, or even an aftermarket wheel. However be ready to pay throught he noise for that 6" of backspacing.
