I don't think that you will find stock foams by themselves. PL probably. Check their site first. LHS may not be open for business as of late??
The foams you will want need to be quite large.
Bear in mind, 60MPH is pushing way past the limit for the stock foams. You may be expecting to much out of them, foams and tires These tires fail at these speeds no matter what you do.. Invest in a set of Belted tires. And don't look back, if 50+MPH speed is what you want.
BTW always balance the wheels after an initial break-in. Especially for what you are trying to do. Hopefully you closed your wheel vents with tape and vented the outside center of the tread area. This reduces wobble and keeps ballooning slightly more in control. And allows water/dirt to eject out of the tire. Foams last longer in this way.
