Rim question

mustang6203 · 04-20-2008, 01:43 PM

I just bought some 18in rims for my 2003 blazer, and i was told that i might need a spacer for them to fit. The lug pattern is the same, but the offset is +56mm, im not sure what the offset on the blazer is, and im in iraq, so i cant go check it out on my blazer... can anyone help?? Do i even need spacers, and if so, what size?

well, if its a 4wd then no you won't need spacers because the offset is high, but if its 2wd then probably

Its a 2wd, any idea on what size spacer?

BanginJimmy · 04-21-2008, 03:04 PM

you will need a 2.25" spacer.

mustang6203 · 04-21-2008, 03:37 PM

Front and back or just front?

mustang6203 · 04-21-2008, 03:39 PM

These rims are corvette c6 rims b.t.w. I will be posting pick of blazer from the time i got it to what it is now... as soon as i get back from iraq.

BanginJimmy · 04-22-2008, 05:31 PM

front and back

mustang6203 · 04-24-2008, 04:02 PM

Thanks for the help man!
Ill be home from iraq in about a month and i can finally install everything and get some good pics up here.
Will a 2.25 in spacer make my rims come out past the wheel well? Cause i want to slam it...

BanginJimmy · 04-25-2008, 05:05 PM

no, a 2.25" spacer should put the wheel in the same place as stock on a 2wd.

Yep get those spacers and you will be set! Where are you stationed at?

mustang6203 · 04-25-2008, 05:37 PM

Im over at Fob Hammer, Iraq right now, but im stationed in Ft. Benning, Ga. With 3rd brigade 3rd infantry division. Do any of you guys know where i can get these spacers? Ive been looking but im guessing that im looking in the wrong place, cause i cant find anything.. Thanks for the help!

csmizzlesxblizzle · 04-25-2008, 05:42 PM
