assuming good condition, that price is good with tires (assuming they are quality).

Design 90's have been done and look great. i don't recall who did it though.

Does these wheels fit without doing anything to the struts and rear IRS supspension? I have a 73 1303 with the 3-bolt strut. Will I have to change this, and modify the rear by grinding suspension stop and changing the forward bolt on the spring plate?

Design 90`s, 6x16 and 8x16 ET 52.

Not sure on the 1303 but you could call Jon at topline and ask him, or check VDub Engineerings wheel fitment section.
And this is a pretty good wheel calculator
