A set (4) of Firestone Wide Oval Super Sports (F70-14) tires removed from a restored 1969 Camaro, owner wanted a modern radial tire, as the car was a gift for his 16 year old daughter. Perfect for that hot rod or muscle car. The Firestone Wide Oval is the correct original tire for 1967 through 1973 Muscle cars. Tread width is 6.7 inches. Cross section width is 8.3 inches. Overall diameter is 26.2 inches. Approximate weight 20 pounds each. All Four tires have about 10/32nds tread left, practically brand new. 



The DOT number is the same on all four (CYLDF2K5281). According to the websites I looked at (http://www.barrystiretech.com/dotcoding.html) Tires manufactured after 2000 have a four digit date code (week/week/year/year). If these were post-2000 tires the date would have been 52nd week of 2081. So that leads me to believe these are pre-2000 date code (week/week/year) tires so the date of manufacture would be 28th week of the 1st year of the decade. Unfortunately the decade is not indicated on the tire, so it could be 1981, 1971, 1961, etc… Did not list 1991, because 1990 DOT numbers were followed by a triangle. I removed these tires from a 100% restored 69 Camaro RS in 1997 and forgot about them in storage. So I believe these tires are not reproductions.
