275-45-20's on stock height 90 2wd.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

My bad bud, I think they are 8's but not positive on that at all. When I purchased the truck it was on wheels much bigger than my taste runs, he stated he had some wide rally wheels that he would paint argent silver for me and include them in the deal, I was really happy to have the Rally's so I just threw em on.

To me the rally's just look right on the trucks and you can go so many different ways with the looks and set up.

I know the 295's look like they belong there and arent out of porportion at all IMO.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

I was thinking of putting some 15x10 or 16x10 on my truck. I got the stock ones for now.http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/a...1&d=1337046299

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

cant seem to find a picture of it on this computer but i have a 96 k1500 with a torsion bar crank and 35s, the only time it rubbed with the mickey thompson wheels i had was when i jumped it and with stock wheels it rubbes the frame at full turn. i trimmed valence and bumper a little and cut end bent the back of the front fender a bit. the rear with the mickey thompsons rubbed the outside of the tire on the lip of the fender at full stuff.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

looks good! how wide are those rims? My boss has a set of those on his 96 Tahoe he's offering me... I think he said they are from a 2003 truck.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

I'm pretty certain they are 16" x 7" but don't quote me. They came off an 03.

Correct.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

WOW! that's a lot of extra meat on a 7" rim. Any issues in ride/handling? I'm sure my Blazer could take that size, but for all I've read anything over 265/75 or 275/70 on 7" rims is risky.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

I have had no issues whatsoever with ride or handling and I have driven 130K miles on 315/75R16s with a 7 inch rim. I even converted my buddy to 315s and he runs them on his 2001 1500 HD with the 16" x 6.5" rim and he has had no problems. I'm not sure if they will fit on a stock blazer or not? They might but my truck has a 2-3" suspension lift.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

Here is my Blazer running 265/75r16 on stock rims... Looking at it against yours, I'm thinking it might have been lifted. It's significantly taller than a similar vintage 4x4 Tahoe and Suburban I've compared it's height to in the last week.

http://i943.photobucket.com/albums/a...10418-1029.jpg

At this point I've decided to go with 285/75r16 Falken Wildpeak A/T... but might look into the 305/70r16

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

Yours does look taller than a stock blazer. You can see the tire leaning in at the top alittle like the torsion bars have been turned up. My lift is basically like just turning the bars up. It's a kit that Rough Country offered advertised as a 2-3 inch lift. I got it back in '05 so i'm not sure if they still make it. It's an Add a leaf rear, new torsion bars, new upper control arms and differential drop brackets. That's a good looking blazer by the way! I have always thought it would be cool to have one of those trucks with 315s on it because it would look tall with that shortwheel base. Post some pics when you get the new tires.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

How much lift do you have for the 33's, i want to run them but only have a 4"
spindle lift

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

265/75/16s on some American racing wheels. Changed the backspacing so when I add fender flares it will look stock.

My Burb came stock with P245/75R16's and the ugliest alloys ( IMHO) GM ever made. The rims on it now are 17's from a 2005 Avalanche with P265/70R17's. I've had lots of compliments about the Avalanche rims on my Burb. A great upgrade for not much money.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

Those wheels look awesome! I thought about getting some of them.

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

I agree, but what's so weird is how different they look with the smooth centers. Changes the whole look of the wheel. But I really like the Avalanche wheels on there. The OBS 4wd guys have it so easy with all these newfangled factory wheels:lol:

255/85-16 Cooper Discoverer STs on Ford 7" wheels. 33" tall w/o the excessive width and no need to lift,just cranked up torsion bars. It goes through mud and snow better than lifted trucks with bigger tires. Rolls down the hiway better,too

Running 16x8" American Racing wheels with 265/75/16's for winter, and a few different sets of 33x12.50r15's during the summer. Will post pictures later when the computer isnt acting up :banghead:

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

Havent had any Issues at all. I did a little playing around last night. 22X9.5 with a 265/35/22 on the rear, fits perfect other than I would have to roll the lip a little bit. Could probably use a little more sidewall tho .... Maybe a 285/35/22 .... Gonna try one when I get some in stock . No way it will work on the front lowered this much.

my 93 burb bagged on 22s with 265/35/22s debating on goin way bigger right now since its torn apart

Re: '88-'98: What Size Tire and Wheel are You Running?
 

Basic set up:
Front end:
Lowered about 4” with 2” drop spindles and drop springs
Cut fender flange lip off flush with inner fender well, spot welded inner & outer back together and ground smooth. Pulled inner fender well bolt directly above tire out.

Rear end:
Lowered about 6’ with axle flip kit and c-notch plates.
Added some air-assist air bags so he could have some adjustability on rear ride height and adjust for carrying a load or pulling a trailer. Had to do some e-brake relocating and rerouting to clear air bags and keep from rubbing the inside of the wheel and tires.
Rolled rear fender flange with vise grips and shot filled rubber mallet. Then with a hydraulic-jack a 2x4 slightly widened the outer fender paying very close attention to the sheet metal as to not distort anything. Gained about 3/8”

Wheels and Tires:
Front:
Showheels Streeters 18” x 8” with 0 offset mounted with Falken Ziex ZE-612 (235/60R-18)
Rear:
Showheels Streeters 18” x 9” with a +6 offset mounted with Falken Ziex ZE-612 (265/60R-18)
