Default What tires would I need for my 71 chevelle based on my build sheet

I’m looking to put the factory tires that an early 1971 chevelle ss would have left the showroom with? Build sheet says – PM7 F60x15 WHT LT. and block 90 – F60x15/B 2+2 LTR. I’m assuming Goodyear F60-15 polyglas gt but should the numbers on the tire be white letter raised or just black. It’s a pilot car so it’s a super early car if that matters. Does anyone make a radial reproduction of this size with the original look? If not what reproduction polyglas is correct Thanks

I like the way the Firestones look over the Goodyear. It would have had raised white letter tires.

Exactly what Lee's photo shows,and your Build sheet clearly calls out raised white letter in both descriptions.

Thank you. I just wasn’t sure if they were all the same. Some websites list them for fords etc.
