Looks pretty cool, just not my cup of tea. I'm a Steelie dog dish guy.

Re: New wheels on my '71
I like the beadlock rings. Gives a simple wheel a little bit different look.

Re: New wheels on my '71
Thanks guys for all feedback! Yes it has a very small lift, which consists of a helper leaf or add a leaf on the front and a 4inch block maybe?? in the rear of it. When I got it it sagged in the front so that's why I added the helper leaf.

Re: New wheels on my '71
Another steely-dogdish fan voting for those steelies on your rig. They don't look bad in black with the chrome lugs but agree with richard2717 that they would look even better in white and a set of caps. Nice Blazer!

Re: New wheels on my '71
I like the Allied rims - not too flashy.

Re: New wheels on my '71
Have you put a full flex on the rear suspension? That leading edge on the rear tire looks close to hitting....
