I
believe they do, I am running Cooper Cobra’s on my ’62 Dart. 245/65/15’s
front, 275/65/15’s rear. They have raised while on one side, and I think the
other side has no raised. I opted for the raised white letters out, as it
suits my car. So my memory may be faulty. But I am fairly certain the other
side was flat….
On
my Dart, we opened up the leading edge of the front wheel openings, and
cranked up the torsion bars, so I have good clearance. My bodyman is good, so
you can’t tell by looking that the wheel opening have been modified. I still
have a good “rake” to the car, with the front sitting a good 4” above factory,
the rear at least 7 – 8” over factory. With the paint I have, and the 80’s Ram
15x8.5” turbines, those big tires and wheels look pretty good. The tires don’t
even look all that big, unless you roll up behind the
car…..
Not
the best picture of the car, but the only one I have with the new wheels. I
have a couple of trim clips I need to hunt down so I can reinstall 2 pieces of
trim and get some good pictures of it…

Front tires
Thank you very much
Ray, this is exactly the info I was looking for. I did find tech info on
diminsions of metric tires, after I made my post. We have a COOPER
dealer close by, do they have at least one smooth
sidewall?.....................MO
