I'm interested depending on how much shipping would be to Ventura CA,93003. Also do those rims fit the disk brake Blazers or are they for the drum brake models? I know it has to do with the ofset.

ORANGBLAZ · 07-28-2011, 10:27 PM

All of the Blazers and Jimmys I've parted out were '71 and '72s, so they all were equipped with disc brakes. I would imagine that any clearance issues involved the caliper hitting the inside of the rim.

I will get a quote tomorrow, but would guess around $20 each.

ORANGBLAZ · 07-28-2011, 10:49 PM

Went on USPS.com, looking like $25 each. Guesstimated 18"x18"x10" and 20 lbs.

OLD K5 · 07-30-2011, 07:04 PM

I'm going to pass, but thanks for the offer!

Tbruz · 08-11-2011, 10:44 PM

I'm interested, if they are still available.
Just need to verify my backspacing.
Can you advise shipping costs to 03087?
Thanks

Looking like around $15 each via US Mail.

(better hurry while they're still in business..!)

Tbruz · 08-12-2011, 09:45 PM

I'll verify back space in the am and confirm.

Tbruz · 08-13-2011, 12:00 PM

My spare measures 3.5" backspace as measured from the mounting pad to the back outer edge of the rim.
Now i'm not sure if my spare is correct or not.
I'll have to mount the wheel on the truck and look for any inerference.

Can anyone weigh in with what the correct backspace for a 1972 Blazer w/ 4WD should be?
Thanks,
Tony

ORANGBLAZ · 08-13-2011, 12:42 PM

Went back and re-measured. Three are 3.5", not 4.5". Other three are 4", not 4.125", seems I measured from the recess around the lug holes rather the highest point that contacts the drum or rotor.

(measure twice, speak once...DOH!)

Tbruz · 08-13-2011, 12:50 PM

Just sent you a PM.

ORANGBLAZ · 09-17-2011, 11:15 AM

The three rims w/ 4" backspace still available. $15 each

47thriftmaster · 09-19-2011, 07:22 PM

Could you get close up pics of the 3 with 4" back spacing, front, back and inside of valve stem hole? Is the any pitting on the faces? I had 5 wheels, but after blasting them I ended up with only 3 good ones. One had a large piece come out the back and I didn't trust it, the other was rusted out at the valve stem. Also price with shipping. Thanks

I will post more pics tomorrow.

ORANGBLAZ · 09-20-2011, 07:36 PM

These have surface rust with minimal pitting. Holes for valve stems look great. Have a few dents that may need to be taken out, but overall not too bad.
Shipped some to NH recently and they were $17 ea. via usps, so figure $20 or so to you. How's $100 shipped?

Thank you, since they are dented and pitted I'll have to pass. I need some decent wheels to clean up and coat, to match my others. I don't want any pitting in the face.
