Re: 82 2wd blazer project

Thanks for the props! Yeah the 20 looks small in the pics after the 22 on there but it looks alot worse in the pic than it really is lol! It's got a 245-40-20 up front and a 275-35-20 in rear I chose these sizes so I could drive with it aired out if i needed to lol. The 22 had a 285-30-22 on it and they barley touched the fan box when Droped so couldn't creep with it. I like the style of the 20 better that old skool feel. I will go with a bigger tire when I wear these out more than likely I'll run a 315-35-20 on the rear.

Re: 82 2wd blazer project

thanks panelguy. the wheel specs are a 20x8.5 +14mm offset and im running a 1/4" spacer. the rear is a 20x10 +20mm offset and a 1" spacer. i cant remember what that mm is in inch for back space. fitment is nice i will run a little bigger tire in the future but these are good for now i ride low so it wont take long to wear them out. and i drive it a few times a week!! lol

Re: 82 2wd blazer project

Thanks guys. Been a lot of hard work. Lol. And yes the ac it real nice I made it a point to keep it. I get ask all the time why I didn't put it to laying frame. My answer is its a 2wd square body blazer on bags it doesn't need to lay frame to be cool. Lol plus I couldn't bring myself to cut up the body it was in to good of shape. So just a mini notch and some 22 she just fine. Lol

Are you running a drop spindle in the front or just bags?
