h2 wheels/tires on a stock k5?

[franco802]

Will H2 wheels and tires fit on my stock K5 blazer?? I have found quite a few sets for cheap(wheels & tires). I think they are 6 lug like our k5s. I have no lift, stock ride height.

nope, h2's are 3/4 ton 8 lug. H3 wheels will fit, as well as any 1/2 ton truck/burb/tahoe's wheels. I've picked up sets of 265/70R17's on stock gm wheels as takeoffs, with the stock AT tires, from $300 to $500 a set. Good way to get in tires if youo don't need real all terrains.

The newer 6 lug wheel won't fit over the older front hubs.

No they wont fit over the hub but a little boring of the center will help them fit. Most six lug wheels will fit the rear end of your k5. Be careful with the front since some will not fit over the hub. You may have to "hone" the center out a little. Just be certain to try any wheel you get on the front before buying them.
