what should I do for wheels?
In the coming weeks i am gonna be getting a new set of shoes for the blazer, I am running 9" of suspension lift and am picking up some 38x14.5x16 Toyo M/Ts the only problem is I have no idea what wheels I want. I was originally thinking some eagle 189 style but im not sure I want to deal with the whole polished aluminum thing. So what wheels are you guys running? complaints? I am only interested in 8lug styles! Thanks guys

Re: what should I do for wheels?
These are one of my favorites styles and why I put them on two different trucks of mine.

Re: what should I do for wheels?
wheels are overrated. just roll around on the drums or rotors.
seriously - I like the style you have, just go get em powdercoated!

If I were building a 4x4 the American Racing Mojave (Series 3981) would be the wheels I would buy
