15x8 factory steel rims.

I am trying to find 15x8 steel rims,not rally rims..I have been told they come off 74 to 79 chevy blazers.They are six lug and came on the 4x4 models.Does this ring a bell to any one? I have three, thay are on a 69 cst 2 wheel drive,Could they be original?? thanks tom

Re: 15x8 factory steel rims.

I believe the 15 x8 6 lugs are commonly the spare on 4wds that had rally wheels...I don't think the 2wds had 15x8s but I could be wrong,the 4wds did though as a option.

Re: 15x8 factory steel rims.

I've got two of them and believe they are too wide for my '67 rat rod...they will interfere with the wheel wells when dropped. What back-spacing are you looking for?

Re: 15x8 factory steel rims.

Rallye wheels came with rallye spare.These were available as you heard.The military Blazers run them.You should check a commercial wheel place and have them see if they have a supplier,still.Kelsey Hayse was one maker I know of.They`ll have their book.You could check GM military guys,too.
