Hello everyone! I got a flat tire today and the other 3 looks bad also so I really need new tires. And I need some advice. The service manual say it should be 8.85x15 tires on 1967 Electra. And I run on 235/75-15 today (I would not mind a lower profile) with 0.787” whitewall. Which seems to be good alternative according to www.automobile-catalog.com Rim size (in): 15 Alternate tire size: 235/75 R 15 Total wheel diameter (mm / in): 734 / 28.9 Percentage diameter difference to the original (%): -0.9 But I would like a larger whitewall. I Googled and compared several sizes and I like this one but I cant see any name or size on the tires. What whitewall-size do you think it is? Any recommended tire-brand? Thanks
The appearance looks to be one of the Diamond Back tires. You can order ANY size/type of tire & they will make them whatever way you like. I would guess at least 1 1/2 inches.
