wondering what size 24's i can run on the back of a K5 blazer
I am just starting some research, i am building my wife a K5 blazer that will lay frame with air ride. My question is if i use the stock rearend what is the biggest 24x ??? 12 ?? i can run on the rear and what kind of offset can i expect without narrowing the rear axle ? I realize that their are alot of variables here just looking for a close idea . I will be cutting out the floor and raising the factory tubz all the way up and reverse tubbing the sides, just wondering if someone can get me close ? I also want to run a back seat (dual buckets) , i dont have a tub yet to look at how this will work but it is possible isnt it ?

With tubs I doubt your going to get much of a back seat in there..

If you get the suspension inside the frame,... you can run a 24x14 or 24x15.
It's going to take 9"-9.5" of backspacing to get them there without narrowing the housing. This will require the 405/25-24 tires. With frame outboard suspension,... I would think a 24x12 would be the max. But then you have to find a tire to work with a 12.

To me,... a 10 is plenty big if the truck is low!
And plaid interiors were stock on some of these,...
