1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims
I have a 1970 Chevy Blazer 4x4 with 1972 Chevy C10 rally 6 lug rims. I want to add the hubcaps period to these rims but the front hub does not protrude through the hole on the hubcap. Will someone advise of the correct rim size/offset, etc. to accomplish this setup?

I'm also curious what the front hub looks like...

Re: 1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims
The rally wheel is probably 8" wide and too deep to run a stock wheel cover. You will probably need about a 6" wide wheel.

Re: 1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims
I am very partial to the cap-less look of these original optional 16.5" deep dish wheels.
Shame everybody goes with the belly button '80's Rally wheels..

You're very observant.

Re: 1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims
I think we scared him away...
But if you're still looking at this thread, ASA72, are you talking about the rally wheel center caps, or full wheel covers?

Re: 1970 Blaxer 4x4 rims
I like nice paint too. Since that was an obvious cheap shot at the appearance of my Blazer, it is in the middle of a resto, and will be looking a lot better in the near future.
