I'LL SAY 8" AND 35 X 12.50'S OR 6" AND 33 X 12.50'S ONLY BECAUSE OF THE
TIRE GAP, I'M SURE I COULD BE WRONG ON EITHER ONE OF THEM

Size Matters
Looks like only a 4" lift w/32.5's to me. Maybe only 31's even.

Blazer Size
My 2 cents...
If your wanting an all around truck, good stance, good ride...a 4" lift with some nice 33's can't be beat. Throw on some 10" alloy's and be drivin' Here's an example

Yeh, I think vtblazer nailed it. Definitely not a 6" or 8" lift on that Blazer. I'm running an 8" and I don't think that Blazer exactly stacks up, ya know what I mean?

I'm with VT as well. My '69 has a 6" and 35s and it is a lot bigger than that. My '72 has a 4" and stock tires and it looks closer to that.

That is definitely a lift spring on the front. Stock front springs bend down, not up (negative arch). The console is not original - it is either aftermarket or from a newer truck.

That's 33's at best. probably a new 4 inch lift that hasn't settled in yet.
This is BFG 35 inch KM's on a 15x10 rim. Truck is wrong body style but it's 3.75 inches over stock in the front an 5.5 rear and the fenders are hogged out.

I'v got 31s and i think they look closer to them then 33"s. So can this thing flex, or what? Do the smaller tires give it more room to twist up?
