i came across a member on here who has some MB Predator rims on his blazer. they are 15x7. i love them so much that i want some myself. the thing is, discount tire says they wont fit on my truck. and they arent in stock. can anyone tell me since im goin to lift my truck 4 inches, i need a negative offset right? i would like some 18s or even 20s. this is what they kinda look like but i only found a pic of a 6 lug. and does anyone know the bolt patter? 5x120 right?

Thanks for the help guys.

 

the bolt pattern is 5x120.67 or 5x4.75 not alot of truck rims companies make that bolt pattern because it was mainly used on Camaros, Corvettes, El Caminos etc.

Keep looking and maybe call to see if you can special order some.

you could also use lug adapters but I haven't the faintest clue if they are any good.

 

don't forget bmw's also have the same lug pattern

 

Well atleast i kno the bolt pattern now but for me to special order some rims ima be paying a hell of alot of money

 

Now the BMW bolt pattern is 5x120mm. Factory blazer wheels are exactly what Bennedict posted. Some people don't like the thought of the strain on the lug nuts with the 0.67mm diffrence in the bolt circle. Alot of people have ran rims with that bolt pattern and been fine.

I saw you asked, you need a wheel with 6 inches of backspacing. Any lower of a number and they will stick out past the wheel well, and you risk your tires rubbing.

 

I still don't know why they didn't give blazers the 6 lug pattern... the astro vans and trailblazers have 6 lug

 

That's true. I've pondered that one. And I'd personally like to know why the whimpy little colorados get a bigger axle, (I think it's around a 8.2 or 8.5 inch) and we got a dinky little 7.5 inch axle. And the front 7.25 is rediculas. Then agian things like split case differentials and IFS on fullsize trucks is a few misakes that we forgive Chevy for...
Reluctantly, lol

 

Yeah, I love the way the colorado's look I mean


just looks mean.

 

Well i sure wish i could find some decent inexpensive rims made for offroad.
