Default Corvette 1973 tire advice

Which blackwall tires for a model 1973 corvette 350 would be the right choice?

Is it correct that it should be the size 235/70r15 102V ?

102 as in 850kg per tires load and V as in 240km per hour Max (150 miles max)

I am finding it very hard to find good replacement tires in this size in Europe.

Enormously appriciating your knowledge and advice.

Greets , Jasmine

Factory size equals out to be a 225 70 15. 235 70 15 is a small suv size.its just to big. I went with a 245 60 15. They look great
