Well, i had a budget of $500 i wanted to spend on rims with rubber ($500 CAD).
I had looked at some others that people were sellin used, but the rubber was too big, or the other ones were sold before i was able to go pick them up. These were in good shape for the price, so i got them. I didnt purchase them brand new. And, also remember its my daily driver, I'll be taking my blazer out again soon.
Snow....well....there's actually alot melted already.

how bad is your rust.....is salt heavy up there on the roads? check under the kick panels if u havent already and inside the fender wells towords the bottom of the car and along the gas lid(pictured), passenger rear fenders, under the carpet...those are the places i've noticed the worst rust on mine.....

yea, they salt often in winter, and our winters are pretty brutal. If you've (for some reason) ever been to Winnipeg, you would understand. but ya, i need to get some metal replaced under the rear doors, and the rear fenders, and im pretty much going to sand down the whole car and see what else is needed.

Looks clean. I like the rims too. Don't look like your wheel well rust is to bad. I would get a electric sander and sand it down, and get some touch up paint maybe.

Unless i get adjustable coilovers or springs, i wont be able to drop it, because it is driven in the winter aswell as in summer. And i'm not spending a few hundred dollars on a suspension kit.
