Offroad Trailblazers and Envoys

Anyone with wagon wheels on a lifted tb?

Trailblazer and Envoy related, but not off-road related...

Interested in running a set of wagon wheels from a 2014+ Silverado or Sierra and wanted to know if anyone else has. Plan on doing the Liftmeister lift and adaptors with 265/75r17 and not sure if i want to stay grey or go whote or black on my grey 2008 trailblazer.

Was actually looking to do this style myself. BUT I already had the old steels off my old Silverado setting around. Some wheel paint and I'm liking it. I wouldn't think they would look to different!

Steel wheels are stronger and can be hammered back into place if damaged. Aluminum will not bend much before it just breaks.
Downside to steel is they are heavier and will cause accelerated wear on bearing and a slight affect on MPGs.
Personal preference, really.
