I probably wouldn't go much wider than a 10.5" on a 7" rim. It's a nicetaper and not excessive. That's what I'm running on mine........feel free to check them out for looks.

Nice choice on the rims. Gonna get me a set of those myself.......once if fix everything else, lol. As for more info onrims and tires, Hanr actually made a really good thread a while back detailing just about everything wheel and tire for s-blazers that you would need to know. If ya have any questions i would check it out Link. Even i learned a thing or two.

Why stop there, trim the fenders and go 33's. Ya know ya want to. Plus i look atit this way. 31's are plentiful but you alway want to go bigger. 32's are bigger but harder to find half the time. 33's are everywhere and they are nice and huge, plus you can clear them with minimal effort. Just my thoughts anyway. Definately get some pics up though. Basically what you got is what im going for so thats gotta look sweet.

Glad I could help.
Thanks for the link, I had forgot about that thread.

I might do the 33" on my '00 next. trim the fenders and install some pocket flares and see what happens.
