Imnotmikal, to some it up, either size will fit. But the 22's will give a rougher ride and you will have to watch potholes and hazards in the road like a hawk. Plus with 22's your speedo and odometer will be off a little unless you recalibrate the settings which can be done electronicly through the obdII port ( if I recall right). Oh and the only thing we ask in return for helping you out is that you post pictures when you get your wheels on the blazer!

Oh btw back space for a 4wd is 6", so try to stay close to that number. Centerline makes wheels with a 5" and 5.5" backsapce which will work.

The tire size i ran in that pic was 275/45/20 which is a 29.7" tire. It did rub the front fender a little, but a hammer took care of that issue.

Oh and NJ4x4, that line of "Because 35's are practically rubber bands". That's going in my sig! If someone didn't know you were talking about low pro tires, that makes it sound like you must run 40 inch tires or something
