Default Older Blazer 4x4 Rims On Newer Blazer

okay, so i am wanting some new rims for my blazer,but i dont have a whole lot of money to spend. i found a set of older blazer rims,the ones that say 4x4 on them,for 75 bucks and im not sure what they would look like on my 96? anybody have any pictures of theirs with these wheels? my blazer is teal and i am wanting to paint them black,with the 4x4 lettering the same as my blazer color.any thoughts? oppinions?

thanks

For $75 I'd say go for it. As for the polished lip, IMO the older rims look better when all black. Good luck in your decision!

I think they'd look good all black.

I know this is on a first gen but Blazin_Jason has them powdercoated black

Kind of a hard angle to see but it's the only pic I could find of his wheels

I was thinkin about the same thing! The older rims look so much better than anything GM offered factory for the 95-04 models.

Glad to see they will fit!
