Nice TB i like them also. the stepper motors are easy. its harder to get the cluster out of a TB than replacing the stepper motors lol. thermostats aren't fun and they stick open often, water pumps get slack and vent valves go out. other than those few things they are great vehicles. but i dont think the saw blades will fit over the calipers unless the spacers will help them clear.

I was gonna say you should get some TB SS rims, until i saw that you want to put a slight lift on her. I love those damn rims:

Sorry for the jack. That thing is nice! I have honestly always liked Trailblazers. Don't know why. They are sweet little trucks/cars/SUVs/whatever.

That thing is :boobs: Shocker alert, I even like the rims on it!

And I agree, I dont think 16" rims will clear the brakes. From what I remember of my wifes 08 the 17" were tight to the calipers.

Sawblades will clear on the swb version, It uses a 16" spare.

There's one around here. It's a slight lift, but it's got pretty decent sized tires, flat black rims, flat black painted chrome all around, a brushguard, and a light rack. Unfortunately, it's got a ricer exhaust, and the guy drives it like he stole it.
