Those are the EURO spec flares... There is a euro spec blazer on post with those.. local GM dealer should be able to order them. I can try to find a set out here if you want.

Re: 17inch rims

I bought a set of 17 inch rims. 17x9.5.... What size tire should i buy to keep the same height or a little taller. A 275/50-17 will put you at just under 28" diameter...which is a little less than stock. Maybe look for something around that size. Tire rack doesn't stock a 275/50-17.. how much talle...

the only way I could think of getting it easily is to have someone go to each page for each vehicle and saving it, then rebuilding it with the links. It would take forever to do.

Tires tires tires !?!?!?!?!

HI, I have a problem. I have a hole in my right rear tire, Uniroyal AWD blackwall. I had it plugged but the tire won't keep air. Next thing would be to have it patched but I'm worried about it becoming a safety issue while driving on the autobahn at 85 to 95mph.... Tires get really hot at 95 to 100m...

Hey, when I was in Germany there was a speed limit. But that was back around 89/90. And it sure wasn't 180! Unlike the myth that there is no speed limit, there is. Sorry you are mistaken or I don't understand your response. The autobahn has NO speed limit. There wasnít a speed limit in 1989 and 199...

Hey, I was looking in the owner's manual(yeah, I actually read it!) and if you have the "locker" Rear Diff(Code G80 in the glove box), they recommend changing it at first oil change. Figure I'd put this info here since there will be more people(and Dealers) who did not read the manual. Cheers, Con ...
