I believe they were rolled. Need to double check but 90% sure.

If they have been rolled the F60s will fit no problem and they will fill out your wheel wells nicely.

Absolutely they were rolled. The Hemi Challenger I bought from the OO and restored back in the 80's had them. Original fenders were rusted so I bought new ones direct from Chrysler. One side was still available with the rolled lip, the other side I had to have the body shop roll the lip to match. Must have been some really tight clearance such that an F60 required the rolled lip but the E60 did not.

BBBill, the F60s were part & parcel of the package you got when ordering the 426 Hemi engine. Apparently n/a with other engines so no need to list them as an option. Same deal with the tires that came with the AAR Cuda and T/A Challenger.

I checked the window sticker on the 70 340 convert and it just said wide oval and was part of a $68 group with all kinds of other items (hood pins, etc).

BUT I have a neat consumer information paper that folds to a large size that has the VIN on it and it ONLY shows E 60 -15 tire for the stopping distance.

Fun to see on this consumer information print out that a 70 340 cuda can be 100 ft behind a 55 ft long truck (both doing 50mph) and pass it to a point it's 100 ft in front of it in 10.7 seconds. So I guess I do have a 10 second car!!!
