Wow -- board has been kinda slow lately......

Here's my contribution -- I finally put a decent looking set of tires on to replace my 235/70/15 Uniroyal POS highway stockers.

BFG AT KO's -- 30x9.50x15 Paid $505 mounted and balanced, with roadhazard from the local SAMS club.

I think the tire vs. wheelwell and truck height all balance out pretty well - I have the PA 2" BL, and daystar shackles with torsions cranked a few turns.

Plenty of clearance, and no rub at full lock either directions - the truck should have rolled off the dealer's lots this way -- Chevy would have sold more.

those tires in 31" rub the frame. I wouldn't suggest them especially if you have 3.42. But none the less, they are a great tire and wear really well

Looks VERY gooder. And, I might also add... that's one SHINY blazer.

Thanks guys -- I posted those pics about midnight last Sunday and then went on vacation for a week the next day.

Yes it's shiny -- first time I have washed it since Feb 27th -- cause I got married the next day.

And yes, I have 3.42's so I decided to try and split the difference between 235/75/15's and 31's.

Thanks for the comments guys -- now if I could get a new safari bar for it and my new KC's mounted I'd be back in business.

adrenalnjunky - I just wanted to comment on how good your blazer looks. I'm going for the same look, but don't think I want to do the 2" bodylift so i'm gonna stick with an add-a-leaf kit and t-bar crank. Do you think I will be able to fit those same tires with the mods I have said and not rub? Great looking truck!

With an AAL or the Boise Springworks kit, and t-bars, I would think you should fit the 30's pretty well.

The 235/75 isn't a whole lot smaller than some 30's, so it will probably be ok, you might run into some of the same back-of-the-front-fender clearance issues that the guys with the BL and 31's have run into.

I decided on going with 30's on mine after seeing pics of one of the guys here ont he board--was a black truck, and had no BL.

Hope it helps.
