Just got my wheels and Tires today. Here are the Before and Afters. American Racing Wheels, BFG Mud Terrains 31x10.50-15. When it stops raining here, I plan to get it detailed. Maybe an exhaust? Definetly an Add-A-Leaf. Rear springs are sagging a bit.

How much did that run.  Also your stock pic looks identical to mine even the wheels

I too like it, excellent choice.

Gld to see you went with the 5 pack, just make sure to include the spare int eh rotation.

I am not much of a fan of aftermarket wheels, however those I like.

It's amazing what a set of tires and rims will do for a vehicle   Looks good! 


You did get a locking lug nut on each rim right?

Looks sweet. What is the backspacing on those rims?

Thanks for the compliments! The BFG MT's are a bit noisier on the road than the AT's that I had on there before, but they I think they look so bad ass that I don't care about a little road noise. I do plan on putting the 5th wheel into the rotation for sure. I got a smokin deal from Discount tire on the wheel and tire package. I got a $100 off on a set of new wheels and tires installed as part of a customer appreciation email I had received, and I had a $50 gift card from BF Goodrich from the BFG AT's I had put on a couple years ago. Out the door it cost me a little under $1350. That includes all the lugnuts, lifetime repair/replacement, lifetime rotation and balancing. I have been a customer of theirs for awhile, and if anyone has a chance to go to a Discount Tire centers, you will not be disappointed. They really hooked me up. Backspacing on the wheels is 5.5, and the offset is 40mm. These wheels were specific for these blazers. They fit fine. This wheel comes in Polished, or Chrome. They look identical, but the polished were $50 per wheel cheaper. The 31 inch Mud Terrains rub a little more than the All Terrains, bit only when I turn the wheel hard over. I don't go off road much, but now I'm tempted...considering a 2 in suspension lift. Could anyone give me a guesstimate on how much a 2 inch life should cost, installed? Saw a superlift kit for 700, but Getting a shop to do the work is the expensive part.

I got the same exact ones, nice choice.
Takes a little elbow grease to keep them sparkling but it's not to bad.
I tryed the Powerball, and Mothers Polish, works ok, but not as good as this.
