M1009 or 15x8 Blazer wheels

If I can find a set of M1009 Blazer wheel or other stock 15x8 6 lug wheels, what should I expect to pay for them?

Last I checked for a 15X8" 6 lug, set of four was offered for $400. You can buy new series 62 wheel vintiques for $452 shipped free in primer and not needing blasting or bent up.

I’ve looked at the 62 series several times. I ran across a set of the factory wheels sorta local. I was thinking it was a deal even though I have to drive to get them. Road trip time. Thanks.

Re: M1009 or 15x8 Blazer wheels

I think the 15x8's look best on these Blazers. I'd say for a full set $400 is a decent price, some people want an arm an leg for them because of how hard they are to find. Idk why this damn thing loads the pictures wrong

Re: M1009 or 15x8 Blazer wheels

I got them. The guy put rally wheels on his M1009. He was cleaning out the garage but didn’t have them listed, only other parts from the same Blazer. I asked about wheels and he still had them. Now to find a set of polished center caps....

Sorry to highjack, but is there a way to load pictures correctly oriented when using a phone?

Re: M1009 or 15x8 Blazer wheels

The wheel vintiques 62 series are 4.25" back space. Not sure on the M1009 wheels 4"?

You need to edit the pic on your phone first. Even if it displays correctly it’s probably because of the auto rotate setting. Save it with it displayed like you want, meaning upright. That’s what works for me.
