According to the copy of my IBM card, my 67' GTX came 7.75-14 wsw tires and road wheels. Anyone know what tire manufacturer made the tires?

GOODYEAR on ALL '67 B-bodies

pretty rare on a '67 GTX - I've only seen a few coded for the 7.75x14 WSW 43 (435) VS the STANDARD 7.75x14 "HP Red Streak" 48 (485)

Reproduction Goodyears in that size look impossible to find

14" tires are getting almost impossible to find in any flavor.

none of the '67 Mopar B-body tires are available in reproduction - the whitewall on the '67 WSW tire was 1/2" or 5/8". the closest available reproduction would be the 1968 SPEEDWAY WSW, but its whitewall is < 3/8"

here's the best 7.75-14 WSW pic I could find - on a 383 1967 Charger

we put Michelin 215/75/14 radials on my brother's GTX (20+ years ago) to approximate the OE look - those are no longer available - HANKOOK recently had 14" radial WSW tires

would these work?

I guess the Hankooks look pretty close. WOW, the Cokers have a really thin tread, like 4.5" according to the specs. That would be like driving on ice any time I get on it. I have Centerlines on the car now. I'm going to keep my eyes open for a set of magnums.

that's probably pretty close to correct tread width for the '67 tire - although, I think the "pie-crust" side wall was gone

the '66 HEMI guys have to settle for a 7.75-14 BFG "blue line" with 4-1/2" of tread traction? NO!

I can only imagine how bad the cars drove back then with such a skinny ass tire

There is absolutely zero chance my car will ever get a set of these. Due to both the size and I feel the blueline would clash with the red interior in a big way , IMO.

ALTHOUGH, I am giving some serious thoughts to go with this look from time to time. Serious thoughts', as I have a set of the rims and a set of hubcaps that are pretty nice

Wide tires, I mean WIDE tires as compared to what's available now, wasn't really the thing. Wasn't the rule for Super Stock a seven (7") inch wide slick at the time? Mini vans today have more than seven inch wide tires. Didn't we think F70-14 WIDE OVALS were really WIDE in '68 If you think that a 7.75-14 tire had little or no traction on dry pavement you should have seen what they were like on a wet road or in the SNOW BTW they fit perfectly on both street car rails and if you got caught on a pair of wet street car rails on a downhill in Pittsburgh and had to get on the brakes hard because someone decided to make a left turn at the last second in front of you it was a real pucker moment even with F70-14 red lines on your '69 Road Runner DAMHIK.
