Those are sexy tires but I need to focus on getting white stripes on the steel wheels with dog dish caps.

Thanks Danny, these would be killer on my 1969 specific SS11’s!!! Someday.

No problem at all Ryan, I still have to take them off in a few weeks and sell them in the classifieds here and re-new my membership here too. Rough last month with Kidney Stone attacks and now that I am better very busy catching up with all my 1970 Chevelle clients etc...

Thank you guys for all the Info so far.

One of those oddities: The Nova SS gets redline tires for 1968 and 1969. Then in 1970/1971 - whitewalls only. Finally in 1972 RWL tires become an option on the Nova SS.

Hi. I know my 69 Copo came with F70x14 Uniroyal whitewall tires when I bought it new. I tried to get the dealership to switch wheels and tires with the blue copo that was sitting beside mine as it had white lettered tires and rally wheels; they declined. I have always thought they were Goodyear Polyglass GT tires; is this incorrect? My 69 SS Chevelle documentation from GM says it came with white lettered tires so what would the correct tire be. Doug

427 Strato...They would have like the tires on the Chevelle above. Notice it does not say Polyglas.

WTH, I bought my tires from Coker back in about 2004 and the guy on the phone was adamant that my car would have come with Goodyear Polyglas, so that what I bought.
It has IF wheels (same as buildsheet). I wanted to order wide treads.
Anyways what would have been on an early 11B Van Nuys car? Same as the Chevelle above?? Well if so, thats what I wanted.
