Buying rims for 2002 Blazer
 
I want to get a set of rims from All Terrain Tires, Steel and Alloy Wheels, Suspension Systems, and Accessories by Pro Comp USA could you guys be specific on what bolt pattern and if the backspacing matters.. I know it's 15x7 size.

EDIT: I have a 2002 Blazer ZR-2

5x4.75 for blazers, between 4"-6" back spacing would be ideal. 6" is stock so if you go 4" back spacing your tires will stick out 2" more than stock.

That's if you have a 4x4, 2wd's have less back spacing.

What's the backspacing on 2wd? I've never owned one.

4in on a 2wd.

I wish ours was 4" then I could fit much better rims.

Yeah, but atleast the 4wd wheels sit out closer to the corners and can run Vette or Iroc rims with no problems.

On 2wd's the wheels are sunk into the wheel well, I have to run spacers on every wheel just so they don't look so sunk in.

Before spacers.

The rear tires are sunk in 1.5" in the back compared to the front on 4wd, looks stupid. So I need to buy spacers.

I want my tires stick out farther anyways, lol. So these pro comp's should work right?
