Why do you want/need such a wide tire?

Well as far as i know the only person to actually step the game up so far was tblazin23's....I should let all of you know that you can now fit 24's on an '06 Chevy TB...The name of the site to compare prices and gain knowledge of wheel fitment is www.rims-n-tires.com (http://www.rims-n-tires.com). It's a good site to get good info about any rim you would like to put on your Trailblazer. Lemme know what ya'll think!

Welcome!
True, I checked out the site and it says that the 24" rim packages are: "This package is out of specs range (custom fit). Package is 62mm taller than OEM. Maximum recommended size is 798mm."
So, looks like it is available, but I think the ride would be horrible as you need to run like a 25 or 30 series tire at the max. Im thinking you would need to have like 8 rims so everytime you hit a pothole you can still get home.
