18's are too small for a blazer imo.

Re: xtreme 20s or 18s what would do????

whiteboi8,

Sounds to me like a good ol' case of buyers remorse. Don't worry, if you haven't gotten them already, you'll be sleeping with them in your bed once they arrive. Out of the hundreds of wheel manufacturers in the world, literally thousands of designs and alloy compositions, you chose what you chose because you liked them. I'm a fan of chrome five spoke wheels like the Boyd Coddington Timeless 5's. Yes, a lot of people have them and they're "played out". But I've liked wheels like that since before BC had them on the market.

In other words, it's all about what you like. Not what others are going to say or think.

A lot of people are going to say, I got 18's but I wish I got 20's and I got 20's and I wish I got 22's....you can see where I'm going with this. So when you get them in, slap some boots on 'em and roll out. You'll be cruzin' around and I guarantee people will notice them. Good luck!

~M~

p.s. - Before you post, take a DEEP breath, and use good grammar and cleaner punctuation. I had to read your post a few times to understand it. Just a tip.

Re: xtreme 20s or 18s what would do????

Damn, NICE truck man. Looks like mine w/ different wheels and not as low. One question though, do you still have the rubber peice around the door handle?? If you do, did you paint it, I can't see it in the pic. Now lower it 3/4 and it will look even better.

Re: xtreme 20s or 18s what would do????

Yea I have mine too. I have had one person that works with paint say that there is something you can pick up to mix with paint so it can bend and stick to the rubber. I don't know though I may try it someday. Maybe mix it with touch up paint and try it that way. I have the 2/3 and its just not low enough for me. There is still about a one inch gap between tire and fender. My parents say keep it how it is but Im 22 and don't live at home so it will get dropped more by next summer LOL. Your pictures did though convince me to remove the badges. Nice clean look!

245/35/20 will only rub at a full turn, no big deal.

I've got 20"s on my blazer x with a 2/3 drop... and i have 245/40/20 tires on them and i don't have any rubbing at all. Only when i go over some bumps a little. The rims are 20x9.
