GR 70-15 GoodYear Steelguard
Would a Black Letter GoodYear Steelguard GR70x15 be a factory spare on Vettes or all RWL? Also what of others using this tire, any factory equipped w/ Black Letter or used as spare? No date code yet but single unused original...anyone need one and/or have any idea of value? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete

Re: GR 70-15 GoodYear Steelgard
Hoping some 'Vette guys can confirm but digging deeper, looks like Black Letter GR70 tires were standard w/ 73-77 'Vettes whether Firestone 500, 721's or G/Y Steelgards & RWL's optional?[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] Thanks fellas! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete

Re: GR 70-15 GoodYear Steelgard
----You are correct, Pete! Had blackwalls on both my 73 and 74 both of which I ordered. In 75 I bought a new 75 convert with every option from Jack Douglas. It was the first time I ever met Jack and the following year I moved from Ft. Liquerdale to Hinsdale and started working for Jack and Richard Buxbaum at Classic Motors. Some of the best years of my life, although now isn't too bad either,,,LOL!....Bill S

Re: GR 70-15 GoodYear Steelgard
No steelgards after 77. 78 z28' s used goodyear polysteel tires with small letters. Also 78-up cars used 225-70's. G70's are 77 and down.
