What would be the modern equivelant to the F70 Wide oval firestone that was used on our GTCS cars?

Are you looking for a replacement or do you want the reproduction Wide Ovals? If you are looking for the Wide-Oval, www.coker.com (http://www.coker.com), has the 14 inch raised white letter Wide Ovals. Takes a little bit of searching. Otherwise, I know alot of people have opted for the Goodyear Eagle ST for a modern replacement.

Good Luck,

I think the F70 is 235/60 14. That might be the F60 though.

The guys at Performance Wheel and Tire Inc. in Englewood CO have always been helpful and have some sales-guys around who should know the conversion. They helped me fit a set of 235/60 14's on my '68 Plymouth Fury III and knew before hand that the original wheel studs on the driver side were reverse (left-handed) thread and knew exactly what they needed before hand. They really knew their stuff. Their number is 303-934-2929.
