Help me on RIMS!
Sunday, February 04, 2007 9:45 AM
Since I can finally get rims for the ride, I'm startin to stress over getting the perfect set. I've searched and searched S-series pictures to kinda get a general idea what im looking for. Now since it's impossible for me to know of every nice blazer out there with nice rims (especially since i don't even go on S forums) I turn to you guys... If you know of any rims that would look good let me know so I have more options to consider. Here's a few I've found so far that I like.. let me know what you think... and for the ones I don't know what they are if you do, let me know.

5Zigen's


I've been debating these



Not sure what these are


Not sure what these are either


MBMotoring Express (i believe) I really like these... but I'm worried since I won't be lowered it'd look weird.


Boss 304


Eagle Alloy 025


Old pic, but this is the ride

You're asking here about a rim job?

since it's 4WD I would stay away from bling unless your gonna get a semi agressive lookin tire to go with it. but if it's going down some I'm with Gam as well.

those are the ones I have on it in my sig.... it would look so hot laid out, but I feel weird about lowering a 4x4.
Truck basically looks the same.. only difference is the SS bowtie on the front now. I have a billet grill for it, but its been layin in the garage since fall... once it gets warm I'll put that on.
I wanna get clear corners for it, but I'm having a hard time finding the shorter ones, since my blazer also has the fogs next to them.. the only ones I can find are clear corners that are longer for ones w/o the fogs.

I'm debating taking the side molding off.. but if I go with chrome I kinda wanna keep it just to have the chrome look flow down the side. Plus if I take the side molding of the back bumper I have to fill in the holes for it and have that repainted.

i just hate chrome rims on 4x4s

I love you. Best comment so far. Yes, Cragar Soft 8's in 16" with some nice mud tires would look tits on there.

If its not dropped at all I think they all look like ass. I'm with GAM 110% though on rims. Specially if you drop it. Thats sexy looking.

But you're not premo anymore!

Dumping a 4x4 isn't a great idea, but maybe bagging it is an idea?

I would do it in a heart beat on a 2WD though.

Yeah I know... when it expired it just didn't seem worth it at the time renew Not active enough.

If it was 2wd, it would have already been done.

dam whats the world coming to ? heather is going bling bling


i vote none of the above !!!


but a simple 5 , and keep it maxed at a 18" rim , the brakes suck ass on those with stock wheels , adding 30lbs to each wheel is gonna kill them even faster

haha ya know i was determined not to have chrome on the sunfire.. and not on the 'quest either. But the blazer just needs a change.

I'm leaning towards the 5 spoke MB Motoring... but the issue now is i gotta find out what kind they are. The express is the 6 spoke version... I have no clue what the name of these ones are called

Anyone know?

Yes, I'm witty. The obvious joke is the easiest one to make and follow through.

I know Heather. I wouldn't offer a rim job to someone else I didn't know.

You can make a lowered Jimmy/Blazer look good, but if you have a 4wd, keep it up there
