Default corvette wheels

I want to lower my 91 4 door 4x4. I want to put some corvette wheels on it. I ve seen it on a couple of lowered 4x4 blazers and know they will fit. I want 17 inch wheels. Does anyone know what year corvette wheel would fit? What width wheel? What tire size would work?

Try the 'search' function in the 'Tires and Wheels' section. IIRC, this has been discussed.

I have C5 wheels on mine. I lowered it with Bell Tech torsion keys and Bell Tech leaf springs.

Heres is a link to some S10s with vette wheels for some ideas.

Typhoon/Syclone wheels fit just like any other 4x4 s10.

Keep in mind the C5 and C6 wheels are different sizes front and back. You will also need to use spacers as the backspacing is over 6".

God point. They are different front and rear. I am running 4 rears on my truck. all 18" wheels.
You dont need spacers on a 4x4. The front axle is wider so you can use a 1" adaptor to make them stick out the same, or you can be like me and just deal with the front sticking out a bit more.
