Default Re: Correct Goodyear tires for `69 Chevelle SS

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: SSRSBOB</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Just called him, McNeish is banned from this site so he can't post. Wanted to post this data. He has several cars with OEM Polyglas tires. Late addition to the RPO sheets, April 1969. Here is one date cade for this site.

Example:
J= year, 1969, S= 4th month, April and 5 is the Gadsden, AL plant. This tire was on a 1969 Camaro SS396 built 04C. It all fits.

Interesting info. Thanks for sharing that, but I still suspect that most `69 Camaros and Chevelles that came equipped with F70-14's got the Speedway Widetreads unless they got used up at the plant. Then they may have switched over to the Polyglas N/S.
I have decided to use the Speedway Widetreads as the general consensus is that would most likely have been the one used on my April `69 Chevelle.
