235/60/15 on front of duster?

VREDESTEIN PROTRAC 235-60-15 all around on Rallye Wheels and front disc-brakes (stock).
Works fine....
It “works fine” because with the SBP your track width is like a 1/2” narrower.
And, your 235’s shouldn’t me mounted on a 6” rim. They’re being squeezed down and will be narrower than the advertised spec, which is measured on a 7” wide rim.
And, that’s a Demon. Dart fenders have a longer opening than Duster fenders. The clearance for the width is the same, but the height of the 235 may cause additional problems on a Duster because the rear corner of the fender opening will also be very tight, not just the front.
Even with the SBP, if you mounted those tires on a 15x7” like they should be your clearance might become an issue.
Like DionR I ran a set of 225/60/15’s on my Duster on a set of 15x7’s with a 4.25” backspace. 73+ BBP disks. They cleared, but barely. The clearance to the rear corner of the fender was actually the tightest spot on my car, although the clearance to the fender lip was really tight as well. No way 235’s would have worked. But that’s why it’s important to make all of the information available- BBP makes a difference. Backspace makes a difference. Body style makes a difference. And mounting the tires on a narrower rim than recommended makes a difference.
