Stats on this Blazer
Sorry I know this is the truck forum but the blazer forum doesn't get much traffic. This is the stance I'm going for. I'm new to the lifting side of things I've always lowered everything I've had. How much lift and what size tires do y'all think this is? I'm also considering painting similar to this as well. Silver and blue instead of white and blue.

Re: Stats on this Blazer
I'm guessing thoses are 38's with 6" of lift. Might be 8" and 40's.

Re: Stats on this Blazer
I'd almost lean towards a 10" lift, that thing is up there a ways.

Re: Stats on this Blazer
definitely at least an 8" lift, 38"-40" tires
my crew has 8" with 38.5's. no matter what that size is, be prepared to spend big bucks to get that hi. |

Says 8 inch lift with 36's but those may be 38's in the pic. Not sure.

Re: Stats on this Blazer
Just remember the bigger the lift the more money you will spend total.Over a 37 inch tire you kinda need 1 ton axles aka dana 60 and 14 bolt.
