According to the NCRS judging guide the whitewall width is 1 inch. David

Who makes radials with 1" white sidewalls in a 205 75 15?

The 205-75-15 radial tire size is very common, and is manufactured by just about every major tire maker. Depending upon tire model, there are a variety of whitewall widths available. I'm not sure that anyone makes one in EXACTLY 1" whitewall configuration, but finding one very close to this dimension should not be difficult.If it were me, I'd check with a Goodyear store and actually measure the whitewall widths of several of their models. I'm relatively sure that you'll find a close match. Usually, tires of this size, even in premium model tires, are not too expensive, either.

George/Chris/Dave/Joe,

I found 7/8" radial whitewall at my local Firestone dealer, some dealers may have to order them but they are closest I have found for a good quality whitewall for my '64. Dennis #12799
