Title: Original Tire Manufacturer
Post by: daytho1 on June 12, 2006, 11:52:22 AM
Does anyone know who manufactured the original tires for the standard 67 coupe?  I know that Firestone made the Wide Ovals but I'm not sure who produced the original 7.35 x 14 2 ply whitewalls.  Was it Firestone also?

There were multiple tire suppliers - don't know the Camaro lineup, but as an example, blackwall and whitewall tire suppliers for the '67 Corvette 7.75-15's were Firestone (Deluxe Champion), Goodyear (Power Cushion), Uniroyal (Laredo), B.F. Goodrich (Silvertown 660 and 770), and General (Jet-Air II). I expect the Camaro lineup was similar - perhaps someone else has the exact listing.
