Looks great. I see its in the driveway - is it drivable?

vtblazer · 11-01-2010, 06:48 AM

Is it the driveway or the blazer that's going up hill?
Maybe it's the pic...

Wheels & tires look really/really good!

looks good to me, but I have the same wheels, so my vote don't count

Are they 8" or 10" wide??

10's. Nice and fat. Just got to get them polished up at some point. The backs are really grimy too, but I haven't found anything other than sandpaper that'll take it off.

Most truck stops offer some type of acid wash. It will get all the goo off.

I like those rims, but I might be biased.

I think you just have good taste.

J, you were right, mine are 7/16-20 as well. I was thinking they were bigger than that, but my tap went right in there. Crappy cell phone pic of the lugnuts.
