Location: little rock, AR | Since my '61 Belve has dog dish hub caps I thought I would save some money and go with Black wall tires. What brand should I go with on 205-75-14. I was going with WWW but 800.00 is more than I want to spend on this car .

Location: bishop, ca | Dorsey, the 205 series tires may be way too small for OEM appearance and size.
IIRC, I had some 205 series Goodyear Arrivas installed; great tires; non-directional tread pattern, but, boy, were they tiny.
If it's not too late, try to find out what the riding height of your 205-tires may be.
We want our tires to approximate 28" in height .

Location: little rock, AR | To get close to a 28" tire I am being told I must go with a 235-75-14. They are saying a 215 = 26.7 height. |

Location: Hebron, IN | i have 235/60 - 14 tires and they look good width wise and give it a lower stance that I like. my new rubber is 235-60/15 fronts and 275-60/15 rear. Haven't pulled the trigger on the rears yet because I am not 100% sure they will fit yet, I may do 255-60/15 instead. |
