Bought some Camaro SS rims the other day. I had a different set of 17x9s on there but someone was nice enough to steal only one and I couldn't find a replacement that matched. Also got a new set of rubbers, BFG M/T 255/75/17.

(sorry for the shitty camera phone pic)

[RangerG]

Those do look great. What year Camaro are they off of?

 

[Raven]

They look nice.

But re-size the pic. Its too big.

 

[Thaze]

They look great.

 

[RaverWerm]

really nice! huge picture tho lol

 

[lambert170]

Thanks for the kind words guys. Sorry about the huge pic..

Ranger- not sure, if I had to guess I think it was an '02? Picked up the rims for $150 and tires for $280

These are the rims I had on previously. I'm pretty sure I like the new ones better.

I want a set of those Camaro rims to powdercoat black really bad now!

Did then bolt up or did you need adapters?

 

[csleet1337res]

I like the look of those rims, they look good with aggressive treads. just 17 inchessss those tires are expensive!

 

[lambert170]

They bolted straight up. I do have the spacers in the back to even it out with the front though.

Yea it would be nice if the tires were cheaper but they're not too bad if you find a decent deal. Check out craigslist. The first set I had were off of a Rubicon, only 10k on them for $380. These were also off a Rubicon but probably have around 60-65% tread left for $280

 

[RangerG]

Yeah my second thought was to how bad tires must be to buy. Are they metric tires or just 31" R17?

Those 17" SS 10-spokes really look sharp on your red Blazer. You scored a great deal on that setup! Now, I looking for the same. Thanks for sharing.

 

[S15vortecpwr]

what size tire are you running?

 

[deeznutz]

255/75/17 it says up in the giant picture. Damn nice truck though. What kinda lift you got on there?

 

[steve_1995]

255/75/17 it says up in the giant picture. Damn nice truck though. What kinda lift you got on there?

its a zr2 those come stock like that. its about a 3" factory lift

 

[deeznutz]

Good call. I didn't even notice haha

 

[lambert170]

The only thing on there as far as lift goes are Daystar shackles in the rear. I haven't messed with the torsion bars at all and I'm pretty sure the previous owner didn't raise them either.

Yea it's a junkyard door and the color is a little darker red. I just picked up a new matching one that looks a lot better though. I'll put up a picture when I find the charger to my camera.

I have the same rims on my '00 non-Z. Running 255/70/17 Firestone Destination A/Ts. I should technically be running 265 or 275's. Had to trim about 1-1.5" from the back of the front fenders. I rub on the frame at full lock. Cranked the torsion bars about an inch, but have low mileage ZR2 t-bars to go in soon. 2" add-a-leaf in the back but wasn't necessary.

Only have one pic of recently and the rims need to be cleaned.

Also have some locking lug nuts to protect my investment. Purchased them off CL for a little more than you did.




And a shot next to my $300 beater.



They look awesome on a red Blazer. I saw them on a 2wd lowered stepside forever ago on this forum which is what made me want them to begin with. I've only seen them on a handful of 4wd trucks. Almost painted them black, but they look good as-is so I don't want to ruin that.

 

[lambert170]

Man those look sharp on your Blazer. Yours is the first 4wd S-series I've seen them on besides mine. I hear you on the trimming.. I had to cut about the same in the rear of the front wheel wells and I still rub on the sway bar at full lock. I took note and went and bought some locking luck nuts also so hopefully no one can take off with these like the last ones I had.

It turns out I have a 2dr white parts blazer.. need anything from it?

Here are some pics from yesterday on the way out to the lake. It needs to be washed again and have the paint pen writing removed.
