7.75-15 Goodyears

[Tim S.]

Is the 7/8" w/w correct for 65? That is what Goodyear (Kelsey) is showing for 65. Everything else is 1" w/w. Please advise.

Thanks,
Tim

Tim:

According to a 1980 RESTORER article by Sam Folz, the (NCRS) generally accepted OEM whitewall width for 1965 Corvettes is 3/4 to 7/8 inch. For 1966-67 this changed to 1/2 to 5/8 inch.

Hope this helps. This and other old RESTORER articles are available on CD disc if you need/want a copy. Available NCRS Stores.
