Default Tires for a 78

Need new tires for a 78. The car currently has Goodyear Eagle GT’s with raised outlined white letters that I believe to be original. Would like to stay original. What are my options?

Closest I've been able to find in 255x60R 15s are the Goodyear Eagle GT IIs. Raised white letters, not outline, tho. Original 255s were Goodyear GT Radials. Last available in 79.
The 225x70R 15s were Goodyear Polysteel Radials, also no longer available.
