1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims

I have a 1970 Chevy Blazer 4x4 with 1972 Chevy C10 rally 6 lug rims. I want to add the hubcaps period to these rims but the front hub does not protrude through the hole on the hubcap. Will someone advise of the correct rim size/offset, etc. to accomplish this setup?

I'm also curious what the front hub looks like...

Re: 1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims

The rally wheel is probably 8" wide and too deep to run a stock wheel cover. You will probably need about a 6" wide wheel.

Talking Re: 1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims

I am very partial to the cap-less look of these original optional 16.5" deep dish wheels.

Shame everybody goes with the belly button '80's Rally wheels..

Thumbs down Re: 1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims

You're very observant.

Re: 1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims

I think we scared him away...

But if you're still looking at this thread, ASA72, are you talking about the rally wheel center caps, or full wheel covers?

I'm fond of the 80's rallye wheels. I like nice paint also.

Exclamation Re: 1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims

I like nice paint too. Since that was an obvious cheap shot at the appearance of my Blazer, it is in the middle of a resto, and will be looking a lot better in the near future.
