Repro tire recommendations

Figured I would start a new thread as the other may get overlooked. Looking for opinions/correctness on the below Goodyear tire choices for an early June 69 Camaro SS. Thanks.

Third choice IMHO.
These are pretty much a 69 tire [Corvette F70X15] being a notable exception. Firestones were pretty much 69 also in pictured style.

The "speedway wide tread" came out in 67 .
The 67 version differs in the "NF Nylon" instead of "load range B".
These repops are 68- up type.
The white letter type is 69.

We have the redline version on a 68 and the white letter version on a 69. The redlines have over 4,000 miles and still look good.

Pic 1 is a 69 type Firestone spare tire from her car.
Pic 2 is a 69 type Goodyear we put on her car
Pic 3 is an original ad for new cars
Pic 4 is the redline type on one of her 68"s


Your call of course

I did these on my late Aug of 1969 ss396 Camaro. They're F70x14 Goodyear Polyglas white pinstriped. I have a parchment vinyl top so it added to the effect..Joe

To add more,this photo was just posted of a Gold '69 SS,and William replying he's pretty certain it's Body tag data is 10C M084 LOS 118891 65 A 712.
Looks like a RWL Goodyear Wide Tread with F70-14 size showing..
