Anybody running 17" Cobra Bullit rims on a Duster
Hey, Steve,
I can't say if you went too far, my Barracuda is still rolling on D70-14's and SBP, so no experience here. Seems like Ekstrand did a similar operation, though, so I'm sure you're on the right track.
AndyF,
I looked at those wheels, but I think I remember they were heavier than I wanted to run, and the backspace wasn't quite right. With my early-B rear, I need more BS to fit the most tire/wheel in back. I could tolerate more BS in front, once I get past the OTRE. My rough calcs indicate something like 6.4-6.5" for the "ideal" wheel for me. Really depends on the geometry of the wheel rim, as a 18x8.5 test wheel I have won't clear the OTRE either.
