Re: Just bought my first Blazer!!! 1970...any thoughts on..

Wow!!! What an awesome Blazer!!! I was thinking of keeping the 15 inch wheels i have now but going up to 39.5x13.5 tires or 38x14.5, yours looks awesome with the 39's what else did you have to do to get them to fit? fender trimming or an extra body lift? I'm told from what it looks like i have a 3 inch body lift and 4 inch suspension lift, the front fenders have already been trimmed a bit so I'm curious to see what will fit without any extra lift or additional cutting....I was told to stick with the 15in wheel because once you go up past that the backspacing increases and they may not clear the tie rods...i sort of understood the explanation but was wondering if anyone could elaborate a bit as i've seen a lot with 15in+ wheels, is that just being done with wheel spacers i was told to steer way way clear of that route...
