Hello
I was looking on craigslist tonight and found someone selling a set of wheels and they say they come off of a chevy blazer, and are unilug. Any one know what the bolt patterns are for chevy?

If it's the smaller Blazer then the bolt pattern is 5 x 4.75" which is the same as 5 x 120 mm. Ours are 5 x 4.5" or 5 x 114.3 mm of course. But a lot of newer rims (mine included) have 2 bolt patterns on them (10 holes) which may fit both. So if the rims do have 2 different patterns just to be safe I would take the time to pop a rim off and see if it actually fits.

Be careful though because there is also a 5 x 115 mm pattern that fits a lot of newer GM and Chrysler products but will actually allow you to bolt the rim to your Explorer even though it is the wrong pattern. Some people say you can use them on Fords too but I wouldn't trust it.
 






thanks i was not sure about the unilug, the pic of them show only 5 lug
 






some aftermarket rims have the sizes stamped or cast into the backing. it'll usually have rim width and diameter, offset, and sometimes bolt pattern. ask if the seller can take a clear pic of the back and send it to you.
 






Old school unilug wheels in the 70's to 80's had oval shaped lug holes and you had to use a washer that matched your lug pattern.

You DO NOT WANT THEM if that is the case.
