Since we are talking tires and whats available does anyone have a site that lists all available out there? Use the main chains or tire rack they only show you a couple like T/As and Copper Cobras and maybe one or 2 others. Those sites didn't show all like Belle tire gives me 3 options and not all available. I'm looking to put 215-65-15s on the front on my 69 Mach1(68 and early 69 tire size of E-70-15s) and either 245/255-60-15s in the rear. I did that on my 68 Shelby(255s) and like the look. Gary

You'll like the eagle assurance, smooth, black, sidewall for the front, not certain about your requested rear tire size. Fills the wheel well quite nicely. Think there may be an earlier thread where I posted comparison pictures of the two.

I just actually did a Goodyear tire search on Goodyear's website for 235-60-15 and no matches came up. I actually pulled up a few Goodyear stores and no tires in 235/245/255-60-15s . Maybe they quit making them?

See my note and post above on the 215-65-15 and the size specs.

Thanks. I found the other size on Ebay but couldn't match up a set of rears I wanted for Regina's old car. https://www.ebay.com/itm/324915585787?fits=Section+Width%3A215%7CRim+Diameter%3A15%7CAspect+Ratio%3A65&epid=11037582692&hash=item4ba67a62fb:g:dzkAAOSw6wphp2no
