i need tire help

[krazykawika]

i got a 1980 blazer with a 6" lift and 35x12.50 tires, on 15x10's. i just bought a 8" lift though and want to put 37's, i just don't know how wide. i want to go wider then 12.50. if anyone has advice or pics, thanks

with that much lift your tire width won't be an issue unless you find that they contact the springs during turns. I don't know what width you are hoping to fit but I think the widest 37's get is in the 16 inch range. If you do have some rubbing get wheels with a different back spacing. You could always try a spacer too. some eople will tell you spacers are dangerous, others swear by them. Your truck your call bro.

if i went with a 37x13.50, what wheel size would i use? 15x12?

You should use a 10" wide rim for a 37x13.50 tire. You could use a 12", but getting the bead to seat would be more of a chalange, plus the tires would be shorter.
