I want to put these type of wheels on my '89... does anyone know if they'll fit? Or where to get them? Or the name (or part number)?

Thanks in advance!

2wd or 4wd? I believe they are called ZQ8 wheels.

I'm fairly certain the ZQ8's only came on 2wd, so the backspacing will be different than 4wd. You can run them, but they'll stick out more than your current rims.

yes the ZQ8s came on 2wd blazers so the backspacing will be different but u can still use them with out much of any problems

What would be another good option for "sport" wheels? IROC wheels? or possibly 18's?

i have seen camaro wheels put on blazers they look pretty good. and as long as u stick w/ the stock width of 7" then u should be fine. 8" width i think can fit w/ out much of any problems also.

the backspacing on the 2wd are 4" and might rub a little with big tires but with decent tires will fit I had 18s with the same back spacing and they didnt rub at all and I had a pair of extreme wheels with stock tire fit, but havnt tried them with big tires

You guys are making me think about a lift now...

*Combining Consecutive Posts*

Is there anything you can do to compensate for the offspacing? I really dont understand the concept to begin with...
