Hi all. need your help. I’ve searched and found some conflicting information regarding wheels and tires for my 85 k5 blazer. I need to quickly find a set of used wheels and tires I could throw on my blazer just to get it about 50 miles. I found these and match our lug pattern of 6 x 5.5 But I also read on the forms that these may not work from newer Chevy trucks. Can anyone confirm what I should be looking at that I can throw on the blazer. I read something that 8 lugs would work but not sure any help would be greatly appreciated. Again I’m not looking for anything custom just used stock wheels and tires from another Chevy model year. Any help would be appreciated thanks

8 lug definitely won’t fit.
I believe the problem with the wheels you posted is the center bore is too small to go over the front hubs. And the backspacing may be too much. Might hit the tierod.

Thanks for that you just save me some money. Do you or anyone have any idea what I should look for in finding a used set of wheels for our blazers. Is there certain years that fit hours
 
Any 6 lug wheel from pre 88 Chevy Trucks. 88-98 gmt400 trucks have a smaller hub bore. 3" vs 3.5"

Steel rally wheels from 73-91 blazers are most common.

Also most after market wheels have a 4" hub bore.

Basically any 6 lug wheel with a 3.5"+ hub bore
 
What’s wrong with your current wheels? Go check out a local used tire place. Will be a better bet. I have no real idea, but would think it would be a cheaper bet to get 50 miles+
