Which white wall size correct for '56?
670-15 FIRESTONE 3 1/4" Whitewall Tire
670-15 FIRESTONE 2 11/16" Whitewall Tire
Looking at Coker's website I think I have narrowed it down to the 2 tires above.
Which would be correct for a 1956 Corvette built in late August in St. Louis?
Thanks!

I had the Firestone 3 1/4 on my '56 and I really liked the look. I have a '57 now and it has the 2 1/4 which looks good, but I prefer the wider wall. On thing about the Firestone tire is that the word Firestone is in the white wall which looks cool. My '56 was a Top Flight, Bloomington Gold car and the width was never questioned. It was an August '56 car also.
