Default Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires - correct for '70 Chevelle SS396?

I picked up this nice set of 4 F70-14 Tiger Paws that have been stored in a basement since the 1970s. They have DOT markings so I'm guessing they are newer than 1970 vintage. Would these be otherwise correct for a 1970 Chevelle SS396? Any idea as to value?

Tony, I got $700.00 for just a pair 6-7 years ago that didn't look as good as the ones pictured. The fact that they are not reproduced I would say they are worth a bunch to the right person, but actual dollar amount? I'm not sure. Those were one of at least 4 tire brands offered on 1970 Chevelles I believe.

1969 and 1970 tires have different raised black wording. The '69 tires are Dynacor Rayon and the '70 tires are Dynacor Rayon/Fiberglass.

If not correct for a 70... those tires are correct for a 71-73 Camaro equipped with optional 14" tires or a 71-72 Camaro SS.
