The lug pattern for your truck is 5x4.75. And I would go with an 8 inch wide rim. The 10" wide is going to make the tire look very balloon like. Now if it was 12.5" or maybe even an 11.5" wide tire then you could go with a 10" wide rim. What lift are you running to tuck those tires? You might want to also think about the backspacing to.

235/70r15 would be 27.953" tall by 9.252" wide

235/75r15 would be 28.878" tall by 9.252" wide

You will have no problems. Many Blazers (like mine) came with 235/70r15 but there were a lot that came with 235/75r15
