I need help again. I have 15 inch diameter rims and I need to find a
"z"
rated tire that is as close to 275-15-60 as i can .The rims are 7
inches
wide but I can get rims that are 8 inches wide under the rear of my
car but
i'm not sure anyone makes 16 or 17 inch small bolt pattern rims for my
Duster. Anyone have any suggestions?

You probably already know of this option but... try a new set of axles
drilled for the big bolt pattern.  You might even find someone to
drill your existing ones.  I've had some pals go that route.

If it was me, I wouldn't run 7 inch rims with that size tire.  It will
requre a low air pressure setting to get an adequate tire contact
patch.  ('Course we aren't drag racing so that may not be a big
concern.)
