They are torque thrust D's.

I have these on my 68 as well with the same 15" x 7" footprint but running 255/60 rears and 225/60 fronts if memory serves me correct. I'm getting old and my memory isn't what it once was. Might be off a touch on front tire sizes and too lazy to walk out to the shop to confirm as I'm enjoying my coffee right now.

Just an FYI on Polyglass sizes. E60's are 7.50 tread width while F60's are 8.25 wide. The G60's are only 8.40 so not much wider than the F series. The L60 is 9.00 wide but they are also an inch taller at 27.99 so they won't fit the fronts.

Here is what I am working on.
Need bias ply tires to mimic my current set up.

Are you kidding me? That car looks "flat out awesome" the way it sits. I wouldn't touch a thing on that car.

Thanks guys!
I think TTO's with Bias Ply tires the same size as what my radials are would look killer. Just struggling with which bias ply tire to get to match up with 215/65/15 & 255/60/15. I am thinking maybe a F60 will be very close to the fronts and a G60 may be a little narrower than the 255's.

G60 would look alright on the back, but L60 would likely be a better fit being that they are 9.0 wide and match the height on your existing rear tires.

This one makes my knees weak if I stare at it too long.
