<VV>Tires

[Jim Simpson]

Hmmm...  I'm not so sure that the letter series tires were only 
bias-belted designs.  I had at least three sets by different 
manufacturers (Atlas, Dunlop, and Goodrich) that were advertised (and 
marked) as radials.  The last set I had -- Goodrich DR-70/13's were 
just about perfect for Corvairs with stock wheels.  About the same 
diameter as the 7.00-13 original tires, but wider.  I'd guess they 
were about a 205-70/13 equivalent.  Too bad they don't make them anymore.

(Not that they were really great tires, but for their day, not bad...)
