How do I find out the correct tire size for my '67 R/T? Is there a chart somewhere?

I need to know so that I can order the correct speedo gear for my trans, but I'm not even sure where to start..?

I'm trying to build it to stock as closely as reasonably possible...what tire size would it have come with originally? What tire size(s) are you guys running on '66-67 B bodies? What looks good but is reasonably close?

Thanks!

The 7.75x14 red wall was standard with the 7.75 white wall optional. The equivelent is an F70 series or 215/70 metric. I bought the Diamond back F70 red wall radials for my 69 R/T.

Pinion depends on gears and tranny.
29 tooth for automatic with 8.75 and 2.94 gears
32 tooth for automatics with 8.75 and 3.23
35 tooth for four speeds and Danas with 3.54

I agree 7.75X14, these are 225X70X14.
