The best wheels are the ones for the X5 fitment. The offset is around 40-46mm. I have a set of these on my 4WD S10 Blazer with a 6.0 Crate motor and Magnusson blower. Although, I did have to put on a 1" spacer on the rear ones to make them match the fronts.

If you compare these to the ZR1 or Corvette wheel offsets, they are closer than the BMW car wheels.

BMW cars have offsets in the 13-23mm range. These wheels will stick out of the wheel wells.

In order to make these work correctly, you must insert a thin spacer around the hub, otherwise, when you tighten the lug nuts, it won't center on the hub correctly. This creates an out of balance condition that you won't be able to fix.

Plus X5's take 2 different offsets like SyTy's so you should have 2 wheels with alot less than 40-46mm.
Also 3 series also have a way higher offset than 13-23mm.
You sure you don't have 4 X5 front wheels on your blazer??

They fit very well. The rear is inward slightly more than the front.

Those sawblade wheels (which are directional so they work the same on both sides) - although not the best looking IMO - actually suck tons of air when they're spinning to help cool the brakes. They're like fans. Feel the suction/blow if you ever have them on a balancer.
