I think it's time to replace my Goodyear Eagle NCT 245-60-15 tires. Still ots of tread and have the nubbies on the sidewall. They are over 35 years old. I can't find any blackwall, z rated 245-50-15's. Any ideas on a supplier? I looked at tirerack.co and coker tire. BFG makes the size, but it is s rated a white lettered.

245/60-15
https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...?affiliate=cn3

only speed rated to 112 mph

if you want a 245/50-15 there are a couple of choices with a "W" speed rating

I have no idea about what tires for that size.
But what a museum piece you must have at 35 years on tires.

Hi

They have changed the codes on tires, you will see 255 50R 16 (compared to 255 50ZR16) with for example 98 W the W being the maximum speed rating
V=149mph (240kmh)
W=168mph (270kmh)
Y= 186mph (300kmh)

A C4 will need ''V or W' rating minimum, ZR1 ''Y'' rated

See link below for tire load and speed rating information

Your tires are at least 35 years old? What year is your car?

The oldest C4 (1984) is "only" 33 years old.
