15 inch wheel on a c30
« on: January 03, 2012, 11:17:27 pm »
Anyone know if I can fit a 15 inch wheel on this thing? I thought some of the bigger blazers came with an 8 lug 15, might all be in the backspacing I suppose?

We used to run steel old school slots on sportsman circle track cars with the truck 8 lug rims in the early 80's that were 15 inch

Trying to find a 15 for the rear that'll let me run my dog dishes. Think a 15 would clear the front brakes on your c20 zieg? (That's what my rear brakes are)

Don't know, never had them up front with disc brakes before.  I used to run a set on a 69 C20 and it had a little offset.
