Currently running a set of 235/70/15 BFGs on the rear of my 73 Duster and thinking of going to something a little shorter and a little wider. I run 15x8 Cragars with SS leaf springs.

Will a 255/60/15 fit well back there and show some difference from the current 235s?

2016 Ram 1500 Crew Cab: 5.7, 65RFE, 4.56 gears with locker, Hemifever tuned, AFE intake, 87mm throttle body, JBA headers, 3" Flowmaster exhaust, split to dual 2.5" exits. 13.57 best ET so far.

They will fit fine and look good. Many Duster/Demon/Dart Sport guys run that size tire on 15x7 and 15x8 rims.

1970 FE5 Duster 360/904/3.91's SOLD 1973 TB3 SpaceDuster 340/4spd/4.10's SOLD Moparless for now but when the opportunity is right I'll have another one.

I've got 275's on my the rear of my 70 Duster - mounted on 15x8 rims. I did have to have the backspacing changed just a tad to get them to clear the lips but now they fit nice and snug and give it a meaner look

I have 245/60's on the back of my Duster with 15 x 7 rims and they fit great. I was going to run 255's but everyone was out of stock when I was ready to order.
