With the H2's, the front tires are inside of the fenders, which in my state will getcha a ticket if their not. (bonus)

Still searching for one more H2 wheel for the spare if anybody comes across one...


I bought a set of 4 for $200 off of ebay and they sell singles quite a bit, too. I am using mine on my 72 2wd Blazer project with the 3/4 ton suspension I put under it!! I think they kinda look cool, again mine will be used on a 2wd with a 255/50 r 17 tire as the 2wd is lowered 4"/6". Very sweet, BTW I have a really nice orange Blazer gate, with the OE paint and all??

I wondered if I'd hear something about saying it that way...

Fairly basic for the most part, serp belt and maybe some alloy covers, that's it though.

Yeah, "just an injected 355 crate", we should all be that unfortunate
