Hell of a price. I really over paid for my bling.
Once lifted 03 Trailblazer on 35's, gave it up to travel the USA with my family.

I'm going to have to check the backspacing on the wheels I have in my garage, I think I may have a set just sitting there doing nothing atm.

Wheels are 28 n tires 62 I believe. The steel 16x8 I just looked up said 38..if yours are 30 than it's a wash.

That's what I was thinking. If he was rolling on 35s I'd stick with aluminums. But he shouldnt have a problem with 31s - 33 in tires

The 15ish lbs I dropped with the change from treadwright was quite noticeable.

The 36s n Beadlocks were stupid heavy. They got your attention

With adapters and 4" backspacing they are going to stick out a good bit from stock, like 4.5 inches if I did my math right.

Did you physically weight the guard dog? I did and it was over what they claimed by several lbs in 315 size.

EDIT: Looked it up and they had told me 70 each and they weighed 76-78 each. Now thinking of that...I have one brand new 315 70 17 with Kedge grip I can weigh and see if that makes a difference.

Moots truck has a good stance from his pics so 4 inches of BS might not be too much.
