16.5" wheels on a K5?
Check out this loaded blazer I came across on CL. Supposed 85 k miles.
What would have been the rim width? Is that 10 or 6? http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/va...891796368.html

If the spare tire shown is any indication, I would say the rim width was either 10 or more likely 9.75 inches.

I think that's actually a pretty good deal, based on the photos.

Re: 16.5" wheels on a K5?
The original rims for that blazer were the 16.5 steelies, those right there are rallies.

Re: 16.5" wheels on a K5?
The spid shows it as 10" wide. 6pr means 6 ply rating. I owned a set of these in the 90's and they have no provisions for hub caps.

Re: 16.5" wheels on a K5?
The OEM wheels listed are 8.25" wide - same as those for my 3/4 ton K20 save for 6 rather than 8 lugs - tires were 10" wide. Listed three times: front, rear, and spare. Unusual wheels for a K5 I'm sure. That spare is probably original to the truck. Don't believe the 9.75" wheels were available from GM.
That Blazer is sweet! It's had a paint but I'd buy it for that price....
