    18" Subaru WRX Wheels?

    Honestly a flap disc on a die grinder is probably the safest hack way to enlarge the holes. Just go slow! Cley

    18" Subaru WRX Wheels?

    I tried 18x8.5 Enkei Raijin from a WRX on my Duster. Center bore is slightly small but I was able to open it up. With a stock width A body 8-3/4 I needed 2" spacers to make it work. B body diff would be way better. I didn't mind the look of them, but they made my stock brakes look foolishly...

    Centers Auto Drag info needed.

    I've looked at ET Wheels. I love the LT-III. Some day I'll get a set of them too. I like to have lots of wheels for my car. Just like ladies with shoes! My mistress should have as many shoes as she wants! I have steel wheels and dog dish caps, the Centerlines, I always look for another set of...

    Centers Auto Drag info needed.

    @GTX JOHN was 100% correct with what was available for sizes. I finally found catalogs from the 70s and 80s online. So unless I want to use spacers I can't find exactly what I want. Now spacers are an option for me. A 5/8" spacer with a 4-7/8 bs would work. Now I just need to find a pair that...

    Centers Auto Drag info needed.

    I have the 15x8.5 w. 4-5/8" bs in the back and 15x5.5 front w. IDK backspace in the front. Was hoping I could find the aforementioned 15x7s to put a bit bigger tire on the front. Thanks for the info! Cley

    Centers Auto Drag info needed.

    Does anyone have info on what sizes were available in the Centerline Auto Drag wheels back in the day? I want a pair of 15x7s with about 4.25" backspace. Am I chasing unicorns here? Cley

    Dog dish hubcaps on a 74 Duster.

    Thanks for the info! Fortunately I have a set of the correct ones. I think I'll change to 15x8 steelies in the back and 15x5.55 front with dog dish all around. Cley

    Dog dish hubcaps on a 74 Duster.

    We're dog dish hub caps a thing on a 74 Duster from factory? If so which ones? Just the plain Jane ones or the ones that said Plymouth? Cley

    Rear Duster Tire Size

    I had 245/60-15 tires on a very low powered 16 second Duster. It would chirp the tires going into second gear at the race track. Now my tires were Cooper Cobras so not the best traction tire. If you can step up to a 275/60-15 in the rear (which is easy with the right wheels) you will be glad you...

    Enkei Raijin Wheels for my Duster

    Well as I was told, they wouldn't fit on the front due to the hub center size. No surprise! But on the back I borrowed a pair of 2" spacers from a buddy and bolted one on. The tire definitely looks too small but I'll need to lower the back a couple inches anyway. The 2" spacer bolted to the A...

    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...

    Enkei Raijin Wheels for my Duster

    I sure hope so! I have been looking for a used set of 17s or 18s that would fit for years. And the rubber is great even though I may go to bigger rubber eventually. Cley

    Enkei Raijin Wheels for my Duster

    I just picked up used wheels and tires for my Duster. I got 18x8.5, +38 offset, 5x114.3 bolt pattern 72.6mm bore Diameter Enkei Raijin with Nitto NT555 Extreme ZR 245/40/18, 25.7" tall. They are not perfect and the price I paid reflects that. The tires are like new and I can clean up and...

    Duster 275/60/15

    Maybe I just got lucky I guess! I do know that if you want 275s, its really no big deal. For me with a set of used wheels from FB marketplace it was truly bolt on and go. I personally would not be scared of a small spacer, and if it necessitates longer studs that's not a big deal. If you can...

    Duster 275/60/15

    My 15x8.5 Centerline auto drags are about that backspacing. I have an a body width 8.75 converted to big bolt pattern. It is all on a 74 Duster. Fits about perfectly with a 275/60-15 MT drag radial. Worst case you may need a very skinny shim to center it with the 4.625s. That said, they all fit...
