1970 duster slant six 8.25 rear swap
:lol:
Lol, yeah what diymirage said. 15x8's with the stock spring locations. And I'd even say 275's unless you're willing to trim the quarter lip back. 275's are tight if you're at stock height or lower. Now, if you're looking for the '70's street freak look with the back end of the car up in the air and the tires hanging out, 15x10's will work just dandy. But you'll have to put the wheel openings several inches above the tops of the tires because those wheels will hang out of the quarters by a couple inches. Basically the quarters have to be at least as high above the tires as your maximum suspension travel under compression. Otherwise your quarters and your tires will end up occupying the same space at the same time, and that's no good. They'd look like this...
To go 10" wide in the back and fit the wheels inside the tubs/quarters you'd need a 1/2" spring offset and a quarter lip trim. Which is what I did to run the 18x10's and 295/35/18's on my Duster. Which looks more like this. Although my car is lower now.
