Picture Request: 33s with 2" and 4" of Lift
I know there are picture threads, but for the life of me I can't find them right now. The previous owner installed a 4" lift on my Blazer, but used '73+ front springs. I don't know if I want to get a set of 4" front springs or sell them all and get a set of 2". I don't plan on going bigger than 33s and the 2" should ride better, but it would be a lot less of a hassle to replace the front springs plus it's nice being able to use 35s should I ever want to. I'm not too worried about off road capability past 33s. I'll take it out on some trails, but I'm putting too much time and money into it to risk damaging it. Ultimately, I think the deciding factor will be whether or not a 4" lift looks ungainly on 33" tires.

Re: Picture Request: 33s with 2" and 4" of Lift
Personally, I think 33's on a 4" lift is the perfect look for the Blazers/Jimmys. Unfortunately, mine came with a new 6" lift (front springs, rear blocks) and a brand new set of 5 35's. If I could find someone relatively local, I'd trade lifts, and tires in a heartbeat!

33x15x12.50/MT Classics with 2" skyjacker lift. I went with the HD springs in rear for towing. Has a slight lean to the front.

That's a nice one Tples. Those newer style rally's actually look pretty darn good on there. I had another blazer with those wheels, holy cow those things are heavy
