My 1971 Duster 6.1 Hemi build
As many other have stated, the selection of wheels and tires are extremely frustrating. Ill be running 13 rotors up front with a HydroBoost master cylinder and have already purchased the Dr Diff 11.7 rear disc kit and 1/2" offset spring hangers and shackles for my 68-70 B-Body rear-ends. Ill also be rolling the lips on the quarters and tops of the front fenders.
I remember not too long ago how I was emphatic about not running Steamrollers on this car as my original plan was a 225/60-16 on black steelies with poverty caps! Trouble was all the maximum performance summer tires have moved into the 17 + diameter wheels and 17s wider than 8 may hit the suspension and still require a 11.95 maximum sized rotor!
Since I want to do it all in this car, drag, autocross road race and Big Bend Open Road Race in west Texas next spring, probably in the Street Rod 95Mph class with my wife a copilot (That should be fun!) as well as drive the dang thing, I've decided to go with 18s. Im still not sure if this will work, but here is what I have narrowed the selection down too:
245/40-18x9 +30mm
275/35-18x10 +45mm
