What size lift and tires do you have on your truck? Looks nice.

It has a 4 inch Trail Master suspension lift that’s nearly as old as the truck itself. Was added in 1993 (not by me) by my father after he purchased the truck from it’s original owner.

The tires are 33x12.50 R15 BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain tires.

That's a really nice truck. The pictures remind me why I love these trucks so much.

Re the V10/K10 thing, my trucks an 88 Blazer. Same front as yours, yet the side badge still says 'K5 Blazer'. Was that only for the puck ups then??

Conventional Cab, Crew Cab, Blazer/Jimmy, and Suburban were changed over to R/V for 1987. Since only the Crew Cab, Blazer/Jimmy, and Suburban continued production up to 1991, those kept the R/V designation.

Your Blazer is a V, despite the K on the badge. I guess GM didn’t feel that it was necessary to change the badges over.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Do you know how deep those beauty rings are on your Rally wheels?? I wanna get a set for mine, but don’t know whether to go for the 2 inch or 3 inch ones....

I went out to the shed and measured them, they’re 3 inches, not including the edge of the rings that overlaps the wheel's edge.
