Here's some pics.
cool! good to see what those size roms would look like on my truck (hard to picture with them sitting in the store!). is your blazer lowered or stock height?

Re: Show off your 6 lug wheels

Here's my 69 with stock rims and caps.



I do have a set of 15 x 8 Rally's for it. No sense in putting on wider tires for the winter here in upstate NY.

Do you really drive that beautiful truck in the Winter on the sleet and salty roads?

Re: Show off your 6 lug wheels

Does anyone know how wide the stock steel wheels that came on 73-87 body style trucks are (4 nub ). Not the 8" but the standard narrow ones. I would like something slightly wider than my 5.5" ones on my 69.

Re: Show off your 6 lug wheels

Anyone running Foose Legend 6 F137's? I don;t want something with a huge positive offset. I kind of want a deeper dish-ish look. I'm thinking 20's. Wish I knew more about Offset/Backspacing. I'm guessing I would have to run wheel spacers. Running all drum 6 lugs on my 67. Let me know.

Re: Show off your 6 lug wheels

It sure seems difficult to find a lug wheels that isn't made to order as custom wheels are. I have been looking too and can't find the answers needed. I hope you get your answer so I can learn.
