new wheels-pic
I got new wheels yesterday for my blazer, but since it was raining i had the shop mount them on my swb to make sure they fit. Only a crappy cell phone pic so far. Unfortunately, they'll probably stay on my swb until I get the cast off my leg. I got such a great deal on them I'm thinking I might get a black set for the swb. If I do, I'll probably get a taller side wall since it not as low as my blazer (yet). There's too much fender well gap for my taste if I got the same sizes.

Re: new wheels-pic
i agree about the gap, but they would definitely look sweet in black on the swb with the taller sidewall. Ive always liked dark wheels with white paint. Can't wait to see them on the blazer. Im shopping for new 20 fronts/22 rears and have narrowed it down to only about 50

Re: new wheels-pic
I like that color on the short bed. Those wheels and a little lower and it would look even more bada$$ then it does now. IMO

Re: new wheels-pic
Looks good, maybe some 40 series tires would help that gap some.

Re: new wheels-pic
I bought the wheels for my blazer, but had them installed on my truck because it was raining and I wanted to make sure they would fit (blazer stays topless). The blazer is bagged so the gap will not be there when I get around to swapping shoes.

Re: new wheels-pic
Those look great. Now why is it all the decently priced wheels I like they do not make in a 22?

Re: new wheels-pic
Great looking truck and Blazer! Did you have any fit issues with the 338's. I just converted my 69 to 5x5 disc/drum and am looking at wheels?

Re: new wheels-pic
I think your truck is going to make me buy a set of those wheels. Those look badass.
