Default Firestone red stripe

The F70 Wide Oval was introduced for the 1967 model year. In this image the top tire is the '67 only version, which is what the OP has. The bottom tire is the '68 version with the stripe moved closer to the bead. The '68 version may have came on some very late '67s and was offered as a warranty replacement of '67s due to sidewall issues. Note that the lettering on both of these is on the inside of the stripe unlike the '69 and later version, which are the same as the repop tires.
