Try rims that fit BMW 5 and 7 series 90's, they have same 5x120mm size. But check central hole diameter - it can be different!

Not having a problem finding the bolt pattern its the backspacing. The problem Im having is finding a rim with 6" backspacing.

What type of rims are you looking for? Head over to some of the 4 wheel sites and check out what they have. Myself, and a lot of others on this site ordered wheels from 4wheelparts.com. Good luck with the search.

i have done my fair share of searching for rims with the stock 6'' backspacing, only found a few rims within my budget that were 5'' or less, i was looking at spending $150 a rim, the rims i settled on are 4'' backspacing, mainly for looks and price, but they will stick out, and more than likely they will rub and require fender surgery, bottom line is, unless you looking on spending big bucks for a custom rim or at least more than i was willing to spend....not alot of rims available in my opinion! let us know what you find!

Default ZR2 wheels sizes?

Hello all. I'm tring to fit a set of 33x12.50 tires under my 1998 ZR2 blazer. I have a 2" rear shackle, 1.5" T-bar crank, and a 2" body lift. My question is what size rim can I put on it? I had a 15x8 under it and this would rub with the stock 31x10.50's (before the body lift). Anyone know the stock ZR2 rim? And the back spacing?

Also another question is, I've been told that their is 6" of back spacing on a 7" wheel? Is this possible? Or is this the 6mm off-set that their talking about? And for that matter whats the difference between back spacing and off set?

Your stock ZR2 wheels are indeed 7" wide with 6" backspacing. There are VERY few vehicles with those specs so there isn't much in the way of aftermarket wheels. If you check out synergyoffroad.com, there are a few wheels available with the stock specs.

Search google for 'wheel offset vs backspacing'. There are plenty of resources out there that do a better job of explaining it than I could.
