question about backspacing
i am looking at the craiger soft 8,i found on here the factory backspacing on 99 jimmy is 6" but i can't find any with that backspacing.what is everyone else running on these wheels?it is a 4x4 thanks mike
98chevyblazer, most Blazer's come with either 235/75r15 or 235/70r15 on 15x7 wheels so no, you won't have a problem.
mross45640, I think the highest backspacing I've seen on cragar 15x7's is 4.5" Unfortunately, there aren't many wheel options with the correct 6" backspacing and 51mm offset. I am running 15x7 with 4" backspacing and really like the look of the slightly wider stance. You shouldn't encounter any problems if you're using a stock size tire. I went up to 31x10.5 and had to trim my fenders as well as crank the tbars some in order to have enough clearance to turn properly.

I'm assuming you're talking about mdehoogh's truck. Here's his build thread, the pics you're after start on page 4: https://blazerforum.com/forum/builds...8-build-50833/
