Finally installed them today.
2wd square blazers came with 15x7 rally wheels from the factory. What backspacing did you go with? Wondering if it is the same as the factory 15x7's.

I went with 3-7/8", which is the same as the 15x8 6-lug rally rims. I did that because I knew they would clear my lower control arms without trimming them.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Started the stake side for the 68 anniversary truck . Some of the slab leftovers I usually cut up for firewood . These are hickory I’m going to just but a slab on each side . Also will have to bow tie some of the end cracks before I finish sand them this week all I did today was send them through the planer.
