I found this on another forum. Thought I would share it with you guys.

I didn't say that you would enjoy it now did I.?!

It's Hard to Believe that someone would like them enough to Pay the kind of Money I'm sure they want for Those, Sure did Ruin an otherwise Nice Blazer.......................

I would love to see that blazer with differant rims on it. I think I like it but not quite sure with those rims.

bouncytruck · 01-03-2008, 07:29 AM

Can that thing even turn? It looks like the tire would hit the fender with the slightest turn. Different rims and tires and that would be a sweet ride.

I doubt he can turn...not with that lift. Check out the dish on the rims, he must be real close to a zero backspacing.

Them there some deep muthers

streetstar · 01-03-2008, 11:20 AM

That poor thing is begging for some 17" rims and some 33's

(17 or 18 is the biggest that i think looks acceptable on a 4x

EAST SIDE LOW LIFE · 01-03-2008, 11:40 AM

I think the over all lines of this blazer are being compromised to accommodate these large rims imho. But then again it's his ride!

esll.

71swb4x4 · 01-03-2008, 12:18 PM

Are the axles shortened, or are those wheels sticking way past the fender. Or maybe both???

vtblazer · 01-03-2008, 12:20 PM

I like the interior color with the green and that's all I'm sayin'.

vtblazer · 01-03-2008, 12:23 PM

Okay, what's up with the door mirror?

Is does have 18's...18" wide !

I thought I was seeing things. It looks like they stuck the head directly to the door.

**truckster** · 01-03-2008, 12:57 PM

I think I saw one of those in a Hot Wheels package.

68K20 x Drill · 01-03-2008, 01:00 PM

Maybe his bags are just aired down.

joemacho · 01-03-2008, 02:45 PM

thankgoodness some one did that cause now i realy am glad i didnt go that rought and is that look ugly for most of our blazers 15x14 on 33's

Blaz-air · 01-03-2008, 04:02 PM

I really think this is photoshopped? look at the angle of the plastic covering under the blazer? Look at the location of the front passengers wheel? look at the wierd shadow line under the tailgate on the floor?

I couldn't help myself.

bouncytruck · 01-03-2008, 05:01 PM

Wow Carter. That does throw in some suspicion, mostly the shadow. The wheels look like they are actually on the truck. Usually when you see these chops, they use the same wheel front and rear but rotate or flip them to match the perspective. These are definitely different wheels front and rear. Also the plastic going up under the wheels matches quite well, but that shadow is very odd.

Hey......these wheels look photo shopped,,,,, I like it alot better now!!!!!!!!!!!

**N2TRUX** · 01-03-2008, 05:58 PM

All I see in the first pic is a Blazer that needs more lift. Oh and get rid of that bikini top that doesn't fit.
