Anybody running 17" Cobra Bullit rims on a Duster

Rice Nuker said
that's outstanding zhandful really inspirational for us trying to get the right wheels.
do you have any mods to the rear like mini tub / relocated springs?

thanks 72 for the info.
Reckon I will shoot for about 26" tall probably 275/40R18 tire front and rear. I see some rims claim +24 on a 9" wide rim, possibly their specs aren't accurate.

cheap as heck too, check it out.

Wow, good price on those rims.

But yeah, 5.94" with 9" rims is going to be tight on the fenders with a 275/40/18. Might work with some negative camber and a little fender lip trimming, but it's going to be close. I'm looking at getting an 18x9" with about 6.2-6.4" of backspace for the 275's for my duster. Lots easier to run a spacer if you have too much backspace, pretty much nothing you can do but go with a smaller tire if you have too little.

On a Dart, 255 is about as wide as you can go without moving the springs. The 1/2" spring relocation should get you to a 275 without cutting tubs, but that would be tight. You'd need to have the backspacing just about perfect, and you'd still probably need to trim the quarter lips on a Dart to do that.

On a Duster you can get 275's on with the stock spring location, with the stock axle you need about 4.75" of backspace on a 9" rim to get a 275 to clear the springs and the quarters. I had my challengers 17x9's with 275/40/17's mocked up on my Duster with the stock springs and axle, they're a 5" backspace but I needed a 1/4" spacer to get them off the springs.

I'm hoping for a 285/40/18 on the back my Duster with 18x9.5's and 6.4" of backspace, but that's also going to be with a 68-70 B rear and the 1/2" spring offset.
