Duster - Suspension/Wheel/Tire Combo Question
I have a 74 Duster with exactly that wheel and tire (Centerline 15x8.5" with a 4.875 Backspacing and 275-60-15 Mickey Thompson drag radials). It has an A body 8.75 rear with a big bolt pattern conversion. That tire on that rim fits perfectly for me. I have uncut fenders and stock location super stock springs.
I know the big bolt pattern conversion adds a bit of width but I forget how much. I'm sure a small spacer will set it right for you! I wish I took better photos of that clearance I have.
