got the lift, wheels and tires on! (pics)

4" springs in front w/block in rear (I'll be swapping that soon) with 315/70/17 bfg a/t's. 3of 4 shocks were trashed and the left front leafsprings was broken, it rides 100% better without sounding like I have 200 ft of chains under it somewhere. I wasnt sure about the rims at first but I think they look ok, kinda makes it look like a hot wheels car ha ha. Took me and a couple buddies about 8 hours to get it done but I think it turned out pretty well. Now I just have to wait for paint and it'll be done. Oh and that big oil stain is not from my Blazer either

YES! that is sweet!!!
The blue and grey paint looks sic!
Any more pictures of it?

About the wheels; I think it would look better with some wheels that are painted or powder coated. Because of the paint, lift, and toughness of the blazer I think a wheel that isnt shiny would probably look better. But those dont look bad at all.

Dang, those 17's make the wheels look BIG, and the blazer looks higher than 4".
