Don I love the new wheel choice. I fought between them and the slotted mags.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
 

Thanks Guyz!:mm:


Would personally love some slotted mags, but needing 17's or larger kinda negates that thought...:sumo:

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
 

The wheels pictured above are the wheels that I have on my Blazer. They are made by American Racing and are named after the original Ansen Sprints. They are 17x8 in front and 17x9 in the back. My wheels are a 5x4.75 bolt pattern but they do/did make them in 6x5.5 and 5x5. It looks like they are phasing out some sizes and bot patterns so if you want some 17" 6-lug slots, you might want to do it quick.

Here is a link for the 6-lug wheels on Summit's website... http://www.summitracing.com/search/d...6%2B4294920326

Here is a link to American Racing's techsheet on those wheels... http://www.americanracing.com/wheels...0691/techsheet Notice that on American Racing's site you can no longer get the 17x8 in a 6-lug.

Here is a picture of my Blazer with those wheels on it...
