2001 spoke wheels
I've seen these same wheels on a lot of different years on these blazers.......Mine is a 2001.......how many other years did they do these wheels?? not a very good pic........but I think enough seen for you to identify...

It sounds like they were popular for a number of years......I like them......they remind me of the "mag" wheels of the 60's..............thanks for the info
I guess we can't tell the model years by the wheels anymore ;-)

As far as 4x4, there were 3 kinds for the 98+. (Maybe more...with the steel rims and such included.)
The type you have, I also had on my 98.
The directional blade kind (salad shooter-esque) was very popular.

But I think 2002+ used the big clunky wheels you see on most ZR2s nowadays.

1st gens only had 3, I think, including steel rims.
The 2 wheel drive pickups and blazers had quite the selection of wheels to choose from over the years. ZQ8, Xtreme, etc..

I think 95-97s had the 5 spoke and the salad shooter blade type.
95 4x4 Jimmys and Sonomas had a different wheel for a year or two. Same with the Bravada, up to 98.
Around my parts it's not unusual to see 1st Gen 5 spokes on a 2nd gen..

My blazer is a 2001 as far as all of the paperwork says.........are you saying [N Jensen] that my wheels aren't stock??........I really don't know, that is why I'm asking.......just curious,,,,,
I like the wheels and they are pretty tough.......so they'll stay........

I'm sure they are stock. I wanna say that wheels were an option, like moon roof, cargo cover, etc. Probably limited upon which trim package was selected.
Anywho, the way I identify different years anymore consists of one or two things; side mirrors, interior, and even the color of the Blazer itself.
95-98 shared the same mirrors. 99+ used the elephant ear style.
The seats were changed to a nicer, sleeker style in 03-04.
Color is ... subjective. Different years had different colors available.
