I'm trying to haul my 75 k5 that hasnt run in several years. It has oversized tires and won't fit on my car hauler. Any ideas on finding stock wheels and tires for a 75 k5 blazer? What else did checy make that wore the same stock wheels? Ive called local salvage yards but found none yet.

I've been asking for 15" 187mm wheels and/or tires. What is the offset? If I'm going to change the tires just to get it on the hauler I guess it doesnt matter.

Does anyone have any ideas other than salvage yards where I can get used wheels and tires for my truck?

I've looked for searchable online salvage databases but havent really found one that works well.
 
Bolt pattern should be 6 X 5.5". Any 6 lug wheel off any Chevy or Toyota truck should fit. Especially if its only to load it onto the trailer. You could ask some tire shops if they have anything laying around. I know the two smaller shops in my town have random stuff out back all the time.
 
Just remember wheels from an IFS truck with deep backspacing will not work. The IFS toyotas are an exception because they were manufactured to continue using wheels that were both for IFS (US vehicles) and straight axle (rest of the world) during the same run.

Wheels that should work.

87/92 down chevy/GMC 1/2ton pickup, burb, blazer

95 down toyota pickup, 4runner


Calling up yards and giving them wheel specs probably wont get you far FYI. At least not in my experience.
 
And putting your general location in your profile would be helpful. There might be someone near you that has an extra set, not to mention any names. :whistle:
 
Fwiw

I rented a u-haul car trailer and the fenders come off so you can drive over the tires. My blazer was roughly 78 inches wide i believe.

Also check Craigslist for wheel and tires, i see alot of steel chevy rims for sale which have a pretty good backspacing and there usually dirt cheap.
