Chevy blazer wheels-16.5 X 8.5 wanted - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**bigdon-70blazer** · 08-06-2007, 05:50 PM

Looking for the deep dish looking chevy blazer wheels from 71-73. I saw these some time ago and am now looking to see if anyone has some! Here's a pic. They were optional back in the day. Thanks!

**jerry moss** · 08-06-2007, 08:03 PM

I HAVE A SET OF 16.5X8.25 STEEL SPOKES IN 6 LUG YOU CAN HAVE FREE. I GOT THEM OFF MY LOCAL CRAIGSLIST AND THEY WERE NOT THE FACTORY WHEELS I HOPED THEY WERE, THE AD SAID 16.5X8.25 STEEL WHEELS AND I JUMPED ALL OVER THEM

. THE "STOCK" 16.5 6 LUGS ARE TOUGH TO FIND

**bigdon-70blazer** · 08-06-2007, 10:19 PM

I appreciate that but I think we are looking for the same things. Steel spokes are not what I wanted. The picture is what I want if they can be found.

f.monroe · 08-07-2007, 12:13 AM

The ad where you found that picture states he has two sets to choose from on that blazer . You might contact him and let him know you are interested if the buyer decides on the Rallys. Just a thought . Frank

**special-K** · 08-07-2007, 07:51 AM

Those factory wheels are 8.25s,fyi.

**bigdon-70blazer** · 08-07-2007, 12:01 PM

You are right. 16.5 X 8.25 size wheels. Thanks for the info and all of the help! I'll keep looking.

**special-K** · 08-07-2007, 05:14 PM

It`s tough,but they`re out there somewhere.I had a set of those in 5-lug on a`72 C/10 I had.

1969k10stepside · 08-07-2007, 05:16 PM

My 71 shorty 4wd had them originally...Too bad they were gone before I got it.

I'd like to someday go back to running wide oems with the stock hub caps on my 4wd...TTT for ya

**bigdon-70blazer** · 08-08-2007, 04:55 PM

Anybody? Anybody? ttt

**bigdon-70blazer** · 08-11-2007, 11:11 AM

Can this be put back to the front one time please?

bouncytruck · 08-11-2007, 12:08 PM

Have you checked with places like Stockton Wheel to see if they have them?

**Ridgeback** · 08-11-2007, 01:56 PM

I have six of those wheels, including two still in the original boxes that have never had tires mounted, but they are for the old style hubcaps with clips.

I have them stored elsewhere and will not be able to get pictures until after 20 August. If you are interested post your email address and I will send you some pictures as soon as I can.

**bigdon-70blazer** · 08-12-2007, 09:22 AM

How do I get in contact with stockton wheel? And I will wait for your pics of the 6 wheels you have. Thanks for the move ttt.

**jerry moss** · 08-12-2007, 11:19 AM

bigdon,
another option would be to pick up a set of those wheels in the 8 lug version--which are more common and the outer portion of the rim is the same between the two-- and have 6 lug centers swapped in. by the way, stockton wheel is about a 30 minute drive from me and they do awesome work.

**Ridgeback** · 08-12-2007, 09:55 PM

I will let you know when I have taken the pictures. Stockton Wheel has a website, stocktonwheel.com

**Ridgeback** · 08-24-2007, 10:25 PM

bigdon-70blazer:

Sorry for the delay. I finally got over to my storage to take some pictures of the wheels. If you are still interested post your email address and I will send you some pictures.

**bigdon-70blazer** · 08-26-2007, 08:05 AM

bigdon@imsinternet.net thanks!

Solver · 08-26-2007, 08:55 AM

kind of hard to find so I
was wondering what a set of those wheels go for these days?

Huskerboy2 · 08-26-2007, 10:13 AM

Just posted these for sale.

bigdon-70blazer;

I sent you an email with pictures. Let me know if you do not get it. Thanks.

CG · 08-26-2007, 05:05 PM

Another board I frequent has a few threads on Stockton Wheels. Im guessing out of at least one hundred people that used them maybe five people liked their service and the rest had nothing but huge problems with them. There are a lot of wheel companies out there, personally I will never take a chance on using them....Just a heads up for you.

**bigdon-70blazer** · 08-26-2007, 10:32 PM

Thanks for the heads up!
