So new member. I had joined a few facebook groups but they were never active in answering questions. So I figured I would join a forum. I have a 04 Blazer ls 4x4. I know what the bolt pattern is. I was never i guess schooled on understanding back spacing. I do understand hub centric and not hub centric. However info is all over the place. So i figure its 2020 and people have had more then a few years to compile info legit info... Since the discontinuation of the blazer till this year. So I am wanting a nice set of 5 star wheels maybe some 18's for summer crusing.. then i can put stocks back on in the winter. I have heard and seen some older style camaro wheels.. but really looking for a thin style 5 spoke.. I was interested in these... CAVALLO® - CLV-5 Chrome (20" x 8.5", +35 Offset, 5x120.65 Bolt Pattern, 74.1mm Hub) more details on - https://www.carid.com/cavallo-wheels...303847659.html. Now those were the first ones to pop up. Also it would be nice to see some or sent some pics with some 5 spokes. I dont like the torq thrusts. so those are out. Sorry if this question has already been asked. But I could not find an answer. Thank you in advance.

 

so seeing 53 views and no responses. i happen to go to the website and seen they didnt have a direct fitment of the wheels listed. however i went and filled out the vehicle info 2004 blazer ls 4x4 and it gave me a list of wheels that were a direct fitment. now i dont know anyone who has bought wheels from CARiD but these came up and I would like to know if they are a true fitment with the offset and all. STRADA® - PERFETTO Chrome (20" x 8.5", +40 Offset, 5x120.65 Bolt Pattern, 72.6mm Hub) more details on - https://www.carid.com/cart.php

 

I've had a hard time looking for actual data on the amount of back-spacing on the wheels. I did learn that the 2wd wheels apparently a backspacing that puts them further out, as if you installed spacers. I always forget it is more or less backspacing when they are further out. LOL

 

well all i can say is someone on one of the facebook groups said dont buy 4x4 wheels for a 4x4 truck. i know the ones he bought were a -13 offset and stuck out a little bit. so i really dont know myself. im new to this...So I found a video that well explains it really good. and with the +40 offset the wheel wont stick out as much as id want.. which is good in a way because they will be summer wheels.

 

Did you read this thread?

What tires can I fit?

 

just did. and it did not mention 20" wheels.. he was talking about how big a "tire" you can fit. I live in Michigan. and just like some. id like a little flash in the summer and a little rough in the winter. the stock wheels and tires i have on now may or may not do just fine. i have little plans for the suv. but i will come back to that post when and if im going to put any off road type wheel and tire. btw the pictures didnt show up....couldnt even click on the image.

 

If you're determined to put 20" wheels (which will look ungainly) on your Blazer, I suggest you talk to the folks at customoffsets.com about what type of lift kit is available to use.

 

why do i need to lift it. this is the idea im going to be doing. but ill be painting mine black.. and he has 20's
