Default 1973 Replacement Tires

New to this forum. Looking to replace all 4 tires on my new 1973 Vette.
Does anyone know where I can buy tires on line to match the original tires ?
3/8" white stripe ( I think that is the correct width )

GR70 x 15 new size I was told is 225-70R-15 is that correct or is it
225-75R-15 ?

Welcome to the forum.

Check tirerack.com, one of our forum sponsors. I think you are going to have a hard time finding the narrow stripe tires. If Tire Rack doesn't have any, check Coker Tire. They do repro tires.

FWIW, you can fit 255-60/15s on it w/ stock wheels or wheels that match the offset and width. I ordered mine w/ the stripe instead of RWLs. Not sure why now. Had ROWLs ever since.
