ok, so i have found plenty of black steel wheels but i dont know what to do. all the wheels ive come across sofar have had less than a 6" backspacing. the highest i found was 4" and most are around 2". does anyone know of a black steel wheel that will replace the same dimensions and specifications as the stock rims with 5- 4.75" bolt patern and 6" backspacing? anything will help. Thanks guys!

how bad is the 4.5 bs on the ball joints? i already lifted it nearly 2" with the tortion bars and those arent helping the balljoints so i dont need anything to make that worse. and another question for anyone out there... are the zr2 rims interchangeable with non zr2 blazers, meaning same size, bolt patern, and backspacing? thanks again.

yes zr2 wheels will fit, actualy any s-series wheel will fit well maybe not the 14s that some of the old 1st gens had.

These have 4" bs. I like that they don't have the stupid red&blue stripe around the inside. Also cost only $38.95 each! I would go for these.

Looking for cheap black steel wheels, you might find one on autopartswarehouse, or innerauto online shop. Almost all auto parts stuffs are available on those stores.

You won't be able to find any steel wheels in stock size with 6" of backspacing. Ask me how I know. I custom ordered some 15X8 rims and the most backspacing I could get was 5.5" so I'm not sure on stock size you'll be able to get more than 4.5". It can be done on aluminum/alloy wheels for some reason but not on steel wheels. At least that's what the place I ordered mine from told me.
