I was running T/A 50's on my '70 Z in the late '70's, notice the worn edge on the front tires from hooking it around corners..

I will except a musclecar even with white walls. BUT, nothing looks better to me than a car with the original style skinnies. The cars just look right with these tires.
I installed some original style tires on my Z and absolutely love them. The car sits good and drives great!

I'm all for running original bias ply's if that's what the car came with when new. Although my 69 Pontiac Laurentian isn't a musclecar, it looks pretty damn good with the G70X15 Wide Oval redlines I put on it.

Jeff,
Thank you for the compliments. This summer I will own my Chevelle for twenty years. I am certainly concerned, when I have to replace my rear tires. I love the look with the two different sizes. I am really surprised that there isn't a company making Polyglas GT L60's. I would think there would be a strong demand for them.

Years ago, my Chevelle also had bias ply Pro-Trac tires with Centerline wheels. This was a popular look in the day. The car looks totally different with the original wheels back on.
