Frank,

Here's my two cents. Back in June of 1972, I got a 68 442 and put a set of 15x10 Cragars with L60's on the back. Had air shocks for tire clearance. Going to the stock car races at Sycamore Speedway one Saturday night, one of the plastic air shock lines rubbed up against an exhaust pipe, with a resulting loss of all air pressure to the shocks. Body came down onto the tires and the wheel well lip rubbed a big groove into the sidewall of the tires, ruining them. Had to walk to a farm house (1972, no cell phones) and call my brother who brought the stock tires and wheels out to me in his VW bug.

As Sam says....don't chance it.
