They will physically bolt up, but the backspacing is shallower than that of a 4wd rim. A 2wd rim on a 4wd truck will stick out ~1.5" more per side.

Here is mine with a set of 2wd rims, I have 30X9.50 mud tires. Did just a bit of tbar crank and all is good on clearance. They did move out about 1.5", but I love the new stance!!

They came off a 97 2wd blazer. I got them at a local junkyard for $120, then painted them semi gloss black. I left the outer ring aluminum to give it a cleaner look vs. painting them all black.
