Hello all am a member of S10 forums so since I just bought a Blazer figured I’d join.
I have a 89 2 Door 4x4 and if I read correctly I can use corvette wheels?
if so do I need spacers?
thank you for answering I know a common question.

5x4.75 wheels are the ticket.
Chevy/Pontiac used them pretty often. You're running a 4x4, so some positive off set is going to keep your wheels/tires from sticking out. Iroc rims have a ton of positive offset, the right lug pattern and are 16x8 so you can play with tires from rubber band up to thick old meats... whatever you feel looks best.
I have the '87-'89 style gold/grey Irocs on my truck, but it's a beatstick, not lowered and far from pretty.
Maybe go with the wired-spoke style early 90's caprice/impala wheels and powder coat them something complimentary before tucking tires on em 🤔
Hope that helps...

I ended buying a set of Corvette Sawblades… I’ll post pictures once there on. Thank you for any help! Originally Posted by ABN31B

I run 4th gen Camaro rims on my Blazer. Those are still the 5x4.75" pattern. I run 16x8's for my winter tires and 17x9's for the summer tires.
Most 4th gen Camaro rims have 6.8" backspace, compared to the 6" on the factory S-series 4x4 rims, so I run the wider ZR2 rear axle along with 1.5" spacers on the front. This results in my stance being about 1.5-2" wider overall vs the factory due to wider rims and wider tires.
