Did a little more research.
I looked up dodgestangs website and found that my desired setup (235 60 14 on Cragar ss) would require a 3.5 back spacing but would need the fender rolled. However it does not list the stock backspacing. As of now I have the same tire size on a set of "smoothie" rims w/ no fitment issues. I have no idea what the back spacing is on the smoothie rims. It is possible the fenders have been previously rolled in the past but I have know way of determining this.

I did some calling around and one source stated that there would be clearance issues. Anyone have any info on this?
Why dont you measure the backspace of your wheels you have now

If you already have the tire on a different wheel and it fits with no issues on the car as is. Just get the measurements from the rims you have and get a different set at the same measurements. Should have no issues that way. Just take the rim to a tire shop and have them check it out for you, or lay it down and use a straight edge and tape measure. Try here it says how to measure.
