There wasn't a very big selection, most of the alloys didn't even come in a 5x4.75/5x120.65 bolt pattern. But I too have a good feeling about these on a white blazer. And don't worry ya'll, there will be pics

There's quite a few threads about this, but I'll repost it. 2wd wheels have 4 inches of backspacing, 4wd rims have 6 inches of backspacing. 2wd rims on a 4wd axle will cause the wheels to "sit out" further from the axle 2 inches. Which means front and rear the stance of the vehicle will be 2 inches wider. Now this means that 2 inches further out is your tires, which could mean exposed tread and rubbing the fenders. 9/10 you can only run a 235-75-15 with 2wd rims on a stock height s10 blazer, even then off road you may rub, but not during daily driving.

BigJon, Were waiting... tic...tok...tic...tok... j/k

Sorry all, but no wheels. I had to spend the money I had for the wheels on a family emergency , but hopefully in a little while I'll be able to get the money back up

Wait, how did you order them on tuesday the sixth and plan to have them mounted by the 10th, then use the money for the rims on something else around the 17th?

Sorry to hear about you not getting the wheels, but taking care of family is far more important than a set of rims. Although I was looking foreward to seeing them wheels on your blazer. Oh well, there's always tax refund time, as long as the misses/kids don't get it all .

That's what I figured. At least the wheel supplier didn't raise a stink about the refund and all. And don't think I'm going to forget about this either. Come march/april, I'm expecting a thread from you... ha ha. j/k
