Need to put some more miles on them but so far they ride better than what was on there. I attribute that to them being lighter and less aggressive. Gotta remember to retorque those lug nuts too....
Thank you Sir |

Re: 4" lift with 315 70 17 on 17x9 wheels
Your blazer looks great! That is the same wheel and tire sizes that i plan on running on my Jimmy with a 4" lift. What brand lift do you have? Is it all spring? Do you know what the back space or offset is on the wheels?
Thanks

4", I used blocks in the rear with the original springs. It rides great. Here are some wheel specs, -12mm offset, 4.53" backspacing, 17x9. |

What steering stabilizer do you have? How much of a difference do you notice with it on?

Really like the look overall. Is that paint factory Ochre color or a different shade of yellow? Looks great compared to my faded factory version.

Its Corvette yellow. You could possibly wet sand with some 3k and buff your paint. It goes a long way in bringing color back. |
