DaytonaTurbo, I like the stance you have there. I know where you're coming at with those wheel wells. My father runs a 245/60/14 on a 15x7 Cragar on his own 74 Road Runner, and that size is easily swallowed up. I recommended to him a 275/60 on an 8in. I feel that's the best combo right there in the 60s profile. Much better than the 15x7.
Who makes the 325/50 that your after?
Yes these cars need some rake and a good amount of rubber to fill up that rear wheel well. 
The 325/50 is made by BFG, mickey thompson, nitto and a bunch of others, but in a drag radial, not a street radial. I think the wides available in a rock hard street radial is the 295/50, but that size is noticeably shorter than a 275/60.
