Looks great.. So with the specs on the wheels that I listed they should fit ?Here is a set of 14"s like you are talking, fits the look of the car nice.

Lately he has gone to the next larger 14" tire from the 235s to give it more tread width and diameter for a little more rake on the stance.
Monroe Rear Air Assist Shocks that give a nice ride.
Running 3.23 rear 8 3/4 gears, runs out nice with those tire sizes.

I ask him what the backspacing was.And he said whatever stock is he thinks it's four inchIf they hit the leaf springs, that's an easy fix: spacers.
If they hit the fenders, no fix for that.
(Theoretically, if they hit his springs, he had too much backspace. Four inches? Too much? That's hard to believe.)
And at this point in time, I wouldn't spend ten cents for 14" tires or wheels.
The wheels i'm talking about in this situation are the l60 That are on stock rally wheelsI ask him what the backspacing was.And he said whatever stock is he thinks it's four inch
I agree. Even 15" are getting harder and harder to find.I would go with 15s if possible, tire selection is pretty low on 14s.
What's the manufacturer's date on those L60 tires ? I would think they're old as they haven't used the letter designation for quite some time if my memory serves me. The rally wheels should be fine.
Doesn't get much better than that!
I'm not sure what the year is on those tires.The ones still have the paper on the tread. The rams are new as well He said when he test Mounted them on the back of his duster.The tires hit the springs a little..... How much are those rams worth 15x8 bbpWhat's the manufacturer's date on those L60 tires ?

It would help if we knew what kind/brand of disc brakes you have. Are they the kelsey hayes 4 piston calipers or some aftermarket ones like wildwood ??How can I tell without mounting the front wheels?Whether or not they will clear for my disc brakes
Those are nice...Like other's have said, I'd keep looking for 15" Cragars. Better selection of tires and plenty of clearance. I'm putting 15" Ansen slots on the front of my Duster with steelies on back. I looked for 6 months before I found a decent pair.

As far as the 15X8 rallyes, Summit has them for $170. I have a pair on my Duster and they have 4 1/2" backspace.
