I have a 1997 4x4 LT, I was wondering if 22's would fit on my blaze? American Racing Octane 350's, or American Racing Marin's.

Yup, Ive seen them on a blazer, but they are going to be really wide and take out your ball joints and idler/pitman in no time. And the tires are going to be very expensive and skinny like runner bands making for a rough ride.

My friend has 18x10's on her blazer with 275 tires and they take out ball joints in no time too, it looks really cool, but the ride is the sh-i-ts.... Its only going to be worse with larger heavier wheels. Her truck doesnt do tight turns very nicely either, the tires hop sideways.

I would try and find 20s that are no more than 8 inches wide and use a tire thats no more than 245 on them... But thats just me.

Yes your deuce deuces will fit but you should save some money for front end repairs.

I have 245/35/20's on my 95 4x4 and it looks bad *** but if I was you I would get 245/45/20's that way you have some rubber on them rims or your going to have to dodge every pot hole with caution. I have pics on my profile and on here in the photo gallery look them up if you wanna see what they look like.
