1976 Vehicle Tire Fitment Guide

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall

H78-14 is a larger 14-inch bias-ply size used on 1976 midsize and full-size domestic models such as the American Motors Matador, Dodge Charger, Dodge Coronet, Ford 500 & Squire, and Plymouth Fury. The listed product is a Coker Classic bias-ply with a 2.50-inch wide whitewall, emphasizing a traditional 1970s look. With a stated fitment range for 5.50- to 8.00-inch rims and a 1770-lb load capacity at 32 psi, this size sits higher in the passenger-car range and should be matched carefully to wheel width and vehicle stance.

HR78-14 is a radial size spread across several 1976 Ford, Mercury, Plymouth, Dodge, and American Motors cars, including the Ford Torino family and Mercury Cougar. It reflects the familiar mid-1970s alphanumeric radial convention used on larger domestic passenger cars, where the wheel diameter remains 14 inches but the construction and sidewall profile differ from comparable bias-ply H78-14 fitments. No product listing is shown here, so owners should treat HR78-14 as a distinct radial application rather than assuming interchangeability with similarly named bias-ply sizes.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Pin-White-Stripe, RWL

GR70-15 is a sporty 15-inch radial fitment associated with cars such as the 1976 Aston Martin AM, Chevrolet Corvette, Chevrolet Monte Carlo, Pontiac Firebird, Pontiac Grand Prix, Buick Regal, and Oldsmobile Cutlass. Available products come from Goodyear in bias-look radial construction, with sidewall choices including pin white stripe and raised white letters. Listed rim-width recommendations run from 7.0 to 8.0 inches depending on the product, making this a distinctly performance-oriented period size where both tread style and sidewall presentation play a major role in the final look.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

165R14 is a radial metric size used here on the 1976 Audi 100 and MG MGB, linking a European sedan and a British sports car through a shared 14-inch fitment. Current product choices include blackwall radials from Pirelli, Michelin, and Vredestein, with classic series such as Cinturato CA67, XAS, and Sprint Classic. Some listings include rim-width guidance from 4.0 to 6.0 inches and load ratings around the 1,100-lb range, making this size especially relevant for owners who want period-appropriate European tire character rather than a generic modern replacement.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

155R13 is one of the most widely shared small-car radial sizes in 1976, appearing on a broad mix of imports and compacts including the Audi Fox, Honda Accord, Honda Civic, Mazda 808, Mazda RX-3, Nissan F10, Subaru DL, Subaru GL, Triumph Spitfire, Volkswagen Dasher, and Volkswagen Rabbit. Current blackwall radial choices include Michelin XAS-FF and Dunlop SP Sport Aquajet. Listed products fit 13-inch wheels, with some rim-width guidance from 4.00 to 5.50 inches and load figures just under 1,000 lbs, reinforcing this size’s role in lighter, efficiency-focused applications.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

175/70R13 is a lower-profile radial size used on the 1976 Audi Fox, Volkswagen Dasher, and Volkswagen Scirocco. Compared with taller 80-series metric sizes, this fitment points to a shorter sidewall and a more contemporary mid-1970s import-car stance. The listed product is an Avon CR6ZZ blackwall radial with fitment guidance for 4.5- to 6.0-inch rims, making it a focused option for owners who want a proper 13-inch radial in this profile without moving away from the vehicle’s intended size category. Clearance and wheel-width confirmation remain important on these smaller imported platforms.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

165R13 is a common 1976 radial size for compact European and Japanese cars, appearing on the BMW 2002 & 2002A, Fiat 124, Fiat 131, Nissan PL610, Nissan PL710, Renault Renault, and Toyota Corolla. Available products include Michelin XAS-FF, Michelin XAS, and Dunlop SP Sport Aquajet, all blackwall radials that suit period-minded import restorations and drivers alike. Listed examples fit 13-inch wheels and, where provided, call for 4.50- to 6.00-inch rim widths, so this size is a useful match point when evaluating stock steel wheels versus later aftermarket replacements.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall

600-13 is a bias-ply 13-inch size associated here with the 1976 BMW 2002 & 2002A and Renault Renault. This reflects an older compact-car sizing convention that can overlap historically with vehicles also seen in radial formats, so it is important to confirm the vehicle’s actual wheel-and-tire setup before ordering. Available BFGoodrich Silvertown Classic Bias Ply products come in wide and narrow whitewall styles, both listed for 4.00- to 4.50-inch rims with a 1010-lb load capacity at 32 psi. For appearance-driven restorations, sidewall width can be just as important as the size itself.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

195/70R14 is a radial size used on the 1976 BMW 3.0S & 3.0SA, BMW 530i & 530iA, and Nissan 280. It represents a more substantial metric fitment than the narrower 13-inch import sizes used elsewhere in the year, and it suits larger sedans and sporting coupes from the period. The listed product is a Dunlop Sport Classic blackwall radial with a stated 1,356-lb maximum load capacity, making it a straightforward choice for owners who want a 14-inch period-style radial without changing the vehicle’s basic fitment character.

HR70-15 is a radial fitment used on the 1976 Bentley T and Ford Elite, two very different vehicles that nonetheless share a 15-inch performance-leaning tire format. This size reflects the era’s move toward lower-profile domestic and luxury-car radial sizing compared with taller alphanumeric alternatives. No product listing appears here for HR70-15, so owners should verify both wheel width and the exact size marking currently on the car before comparing it with related 15-inch options such as HR78-15 or GR70-15, which are not direct substitutes simply because the wheel diameter matches.

ER78-14 is a widely shared 1976 radial size used across compact and midsize domestic cars including the Buick Apollo, Buick Skylark, Dodge Dart, Ford Granada, Mercury Monarch, Oldsmobile Omega, Plymouth Duster, Plymouth Valiant, Plymouth Volare, and Pontiac Ventura. It represents one of the clearest examples of a transition-era radial fitment replacing older bias-ply conventions on similar vehicles. No product listing is shown here, so shoppers should focus on confirming the exact ER78-14 marking and wheel setup rather than assuming that another 14-inch alphanumeric radial will provide the same overall diameter or fit.

FR78-15 is a radial 15-inch size used on several 1976 midsize American coupes and sedans, including the Buick Century, Buick Regal, Chevrolet Chevelle, Oldsmobile Cutlass, Pontiac Firebird, Pontiac Grand LeMans, and Pontiac LeMans. The size sits below larger GR78-15 and HR78-15 applications while still carrying the broader 15-inch wheel character common in the period. No product listing appears here, so users comparing available tires should avoid treating all 15-inch domestic radial sizes as interchangeable. Wheel width, overall proportions, and vehicle stance can change noticeably between adjacent alphanumeric radial sizes.

GR78-15 is one of the most broadly used 1976 domestic radial sizes, shared by a wide range of cars and vans including the Buick Century, Cadillac Seville, Chevrolet Chevelle, Chevrolet El Camino, Chrysler Cordoba, Dodge Monaco, GMC Sprint, Plymouth Gran Fury, and Pontiac Grand Prix. It served many midsize and larger 15-inch applications during the radial era. No product listing is shown here, so the main takeaway is fitment breadth rather than one universal tire choice. Owners should confirm the exact vehicle, trim, and wheel setup because adjacent sizes like FR78-15, HR78-15, and GR70-15 can look similar on paper but fit differently.

HR78-15 is an especially common 1976 radial size, used across a large group of full-size cars, wagons, utilities, and vans from Buick, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Ford, GMC, International, Jeep, Oldsmobile, Plymouth, and Pontiac. It spans everything from passenger sedans to vehicles such as the International Scout II and Jeep Cherokee, showing how broad 15-inch radial fitment could be in this period. No product listing appears here, so users should pay close attention to the exact application and wheel configuration. A shared size does not automatically mean identical clearance, load expectations, or sidewall appearance needs.

JR78-15 is a larger domestic radial 15-inch size used on substantial 1976 sedans, personal luxury cars, and vans, including the Buick Electra, Buick Riviera, Chrysler New Yorker, Dodge Monaco, Ford LTD, Mercury Marquis, Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight, Oldsmobile Toronado, and Pontiac Bonneville. This fitment generally sits above HR78-15 in the passenger-car range and suits heavier vehicles with a fuller sidewall look. No product listing appears here, so checking wheel width, fender clearance, and whether the vehicle remains on its original-type suspension is especially worthwhile before selecting among neighboring 15-inch radial sizes.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall

LR78-15 is a large 15-inch radial size used on many 1976 full-size American luxury cars, wagons, and some trucks, including Cadillac models, Lincoln Continental, Ford Thunderbird, Chevrolet C/K Pickup, GMC Suburban, and Pontiac Safari. The listed product is a Firestone Steel Belted 721 bias-look radial with a .75-inch whitewall, a style that suits period-oriented late-1970s presentation. Its stated fitment range covers 5.50- to 8.00-inch rims and a 1970-lb load capacity at 32 psi, making this size particularly relevant where both visual correctness and higher-capacity fitment are part of the selection process.

B78-13 is a small bias-ply size used on 1976 compact domestic cars such as the Buick Skyhawk, Ford Mustang, Mercury Bobcat, Oldsmobile Starfire, and Pontiac Sunbird. It reflects the period when some compact models could be found with either bias-ply or radial fitments depending on trim and equipment. No product listing is shown here for B78-13, so size verification becomes important before comparing it with BR78-13 or other 13-inch options. Even within a compact platform, wheel width and overall tire profile can differ enough to change appearance and clearance.

BR78-13 is a radial compact-car size used on several 1976 domestic small cars, including the Buick Skyhawk, Chevrolet Vega, Ford Mustang, Ford Pinto, Oldsmobile Starfire, and Pontiac Astre. As an alphanumeric radial, it represents a different construction and profile approach than B78-13 even though the wheel diameter remains 13 inches. No product listing appears here, so owners should verify whether the vehicle is still configured for its radial fitment and not currently wearing a substituted size. This matters on compact platforms where suspension clearance and overall stance can shift noticeably with tire changes.

NR78-15 is a specialized large radial size listed for the 1976 Cadillac Commercial Series. Its application is far more limited than the more common LR78-15 or JR78-15 sizes used on passenger cars, which makes precise vehicle identification especially important. No product listing is shown here, so this size should be treated as a dedicated fitment rather than a broad cross-reference opportunity. Commercial and professional-car applications often place different demands on load support, body clearance, and overall tire height, making exact size confirmation essential before selecting any replacement.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall

G78-15 is a heavily shared bias-ply 15-inch size used on many 1976 trucks, vans, utility vehicles, and some passenger cars, including the Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet C/K Pickup, Dodge Pickup, Ford Bronco, Ford F-100, GMC Jimmy, GMC Rally, Plymouth Trailduster, and Checker Marathon & Taxi. Available products include Coker Classic wide whitewalls and an STA Super Traxion blackwall. Listed rim-width guidance on some products runs from 5.00 to 7.00 inches, with passenger-style and utility-style tread choices that make this size useful for both restoration appearance and more work-oriented applications.

E78-15 is a bias-ply 15-inch size associated mainly with utility and van-based 1976 vehicles such as the Chevrolet Blazer, Dodge Ramcharger, Ford Bronco, GMC Jimmy, GMC Rally, and Plymouth Trailduster. It also appears on several van and wagon applications, placing it in the lighter end of the truck-oriented 15-inch group. Product choices include STA Traxion and STA Transport Highway blackwall tires, plus a Coker Classic-style passenger look is not listed here for this size. Where available, stated load and rim guidance should be weighed against the specific vehicle’s duty and wheel configuration.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall

H78-15 is a common bias-ply 15-inch size used across 1976 pickups, SUVs, vans, and a few passenger-car applications, including the Chevrolet Blazer, Dodge Pickup, Ford F-100, Ford F-150, GMC C/K Pickup, International Scout II, Jeep CJ5 & CJ7, Jeep Cherokee, and Oldsmobile Delta 88. Available products include Coker Classic wide whitewalls and an STA Traxion blackwall. Listed rim-width recommendations fall between 5.50 and 7.00 inches, while stated load capacities reach 1830 lbs on the STA version, making this size suitable for buyers balancing period styling with more utility-minded requirements.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall, Dual-White-Stripe

Current choices include blackwall, wide whitewall, and narrow whitewall products from Coker Classic and BFGoodrich. Listed fitment guidance covers 5.50- to 8.00-inch rims, and stated load capacity reaches 1970 lbs at 32 psi, so this size is especially relevant where a substantial sidewall and higher-capacity bias-ply profile are desired.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall

700-15 is a numeric bias-ply truck and utility size used on many 1976 four-wheel-drive and light-truck platforms, including the Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet C/K Pickup, Dodge Pickup, Dodge Ramcharger, Ford Bronco, Ford F-100, GMC Jimmy, and Plymouth Trailduster. Product choices include Firestone and BFGoodrich classic bias-ply tires in blackwall and wide whitewall, as well as an STA Traxion blackwall. Listed products fit 15-inch rims, with some calling for 5.00- to 5.50-inch wheel widths and carrying a 1700-lb load capacity at 32 psi, highlighting the size’s light-truck character.

F78-15 is a bias-ply 15-inch size used on selected 1976 SUVs, vans, and utility vehicles including the Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet Van Sportvan, Dodge Sportsman Wagon, Ford Van E-100 Econoline Van, GMC Jimmy, Jeep CJ5 & CJ7, Jeep CJ6, and Plymouth Wagon. This places it in a crossover zone between passenger-type and utility applications. The listed products are all bias-ply blackwall or whitewall tires? Actually only one product listing appears here: a Coker Classic 2.375-inch whitewall is not listed for F78-15. The visible product offering is limited, so exact wheel and vehicle verification is especially important.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall

700-16 is a numeric bias-ply truck size used on 1976 Chevrolet and GMC pickups and Suburbans. Compared with 15-inch light-truck sizes, it moves into a more work-focused 16-inch fitment category that can affect stance, load handling, and wheel choice. Available products include blackwall and wide whitewall classic bias-ply tires from Lester, BFGoodrich, and Firestone, plus an Avon Traction Mileage blackwall option. Where listed, rim-width guidance centers around 4.50 to 5.50 inches and load capacities can approach 1900 lbs, making this a useful size for stock-duty and restoration-minded truck setups.

Rim Diameter: 16.5 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

875-16.5 is a bias-ply heavy-duty truck and van size found on a broad set of 1976 work-oriented applications, including Chevrolet and GMC pickups, Suburbans, vans, Dodge pickups and vans, Ford F-Series and E-Series, and the Jeep Truck J-20. The current offerings are STA blackwall tires in Traxion and Transport Highway series, emphasizing utility rather than decorative sidewall styling. Because 16.5-inch applications are distinct from 16-inch fitments, this size must be matched carefully to the actual wheel diameter, and truck owners should also confirm clearance and duty requirements before ordering.

Rim Diameter: 16.5 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

950-16.5 is a larger bias-ply heavy-duty size used on 1976 truck applications such as the Chevrolet C/K Pickup, Chevrolet Suburban, Dodge Pickup, Ford F-250, Ford F-350, GMC C/K Pickup, GMC Suburban, Jeep Truck J-20, and Ford Van E-350 Econoline Van. Available choices are STA blackwall tires in Traxion and Super Transport series, both listed with a 2780-lb maximum load at 60 psi and recommended 6.50- to 6.75-inch rim widths. This is a clearly truck-specific fitment, and 16.5-inch wheel confirmation is essential because it should not be confused with nearby 16-inch sizes.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Wide Whitewall

750-16 is a bias-ply 16-inch truck size used on heavier 1976 pickups and utility vehicles, including Chevrolet and GMC pickups and Suburbans, Dodge Pickup, Ford F-250, Ford F-350, and Jeep Truck J-20. Available products include Firestone, Lester, and BFGoodrich classic bias-ply tires in blackwall and wide whitewall versions. Listed examples fit 16-inch wheels with 5.00- to 6.00-inch rim-width guidance on some products, and stated load capacities range up to 1850 lbs at 48 psi. It is a practical size for truck restorations where correct period proportions remain important.

Rim Diameter: 16.5 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

800-16.5 is a bias-ply utility and truck size shared by many 1976 vans, pickups, and heavy-duty wagons, including Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford, GMC, Jeep Truck, and Plymouth applications. The currently listed choices are STA blackwall tires in Super Transport and Traxion series, reflecting the size’s commercial and truck-oriented role rather than a passenger-car styling focus. One product lists a 2045-lb maximum load at 60 psi and rim-width guidance of 6.00 to 6.50 inches. As with all 16.5-inch fitments, careful wheel-diameter confirmation is necessary before comparing this size to any 16-inch alternative.

Rim Diameter: 16.5 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

10-16.5 is a bias-ply heavy-duty size used here on the 1976 Chevrolet C/K Pickup and GMC C/K Pickup. It is clearly a truck-focused application, separate from smaller passenger and light utility fitments that also happen to use 15- or 16-inch wheels. The listed product is an STA Traxion blackwall with an 8.25-inch rim-width specification and a stated 2680-lb maximum load capacity at 60 psi. Because both overall section width and wheel width are more substantial here, this size should be matched closely to the truck’s actual wheels and intended use.

155/80D13 is a bias-ply 13-inch size listed for the 1976 Chevrolet Chevette. Its sizing format signals a compact-car application from an era when some models could be found with either bias-ply or radial versions of a similar basic profile. No product listing is shown here for 155/80D13, so it is important to confirm whether a surviving Chevette still uses its original-style wheel and tire format or has been changed to radial sizing. On small cars, even modest differences in section width and sidewall construction can noticeably alter steering feel and ride.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall, Wide Whitewall

155/80R13 is a radial 13-inch fitment used on the 1976 Chevrolet Chevette and Volkswagen Rabbit. Product choices are broader than many other small-car sizes, with whitewall treatments from Travelstar, BFGoodrich, Maxxis, and Tornel. Listed sidewall styles include narrow and wide whitewall options, and some products show rim-width recommendations from 4.00 to 5.50 inches with a 959-lb load capacity at 35 psi. For owners of compact imports and economy cars, this size offers a useful blend of correct overall format and cosmetic flexibility without moving away from the vehicle’s radial fitment category.

6.00-14 is a bias-ply 14-inch size used on several 1976 small pickups, including the Chevrolet Luv Pickup, Ford Courier, Mazda B1600 & 1800, Nissan Lil Hustler, Nissan Pickup, and Toyota Hi-Lux. This is a practical light-truck fitment rather than a passenger-car size, and it suits compact trucks that predate widespread use of later metric pickup sizing. No product listing appears here for 6.00-14, so owners should verify wheel width and the truck’s current setup before comparing it with nearby 14-inch radial or passenger-car choices that may not deliver the same profile or load behavior.

A78-13 is a small bias-ply size used on 1976 compact domestic models such as the Chevrolet Monza, Chevrolet Vega, Mercury Bobcat, Pontiac Astre, and Pontiac Sunbird. It reflects an economy-car fitment approach from the mid-1970s, and it often appears alongside radial alternatives on related platforms. No product listing is shown for A78-13, so shoppers should confirm whether the car is meant to remain in a stock-style bias-ply configuration or whether it is currently equipped with another 13-inch size. That distinction affects not only appearance but also steering response and overall ride character.

BR70-13 is a lower-profile radial compact-car size used on the 1976 Chevrolet Monza, Chevrolet Vega, Ford Pinto, and Mazda RX-4. Compared with taller 80-series or alphanumeric compact tires, this size points to a more sporting profile and a distinct visual stance. No product listing appears here, so the key consideration is proper identification rather than broad product comparison. Owners should verify the exact wheel width and current tire markings, because compact cars from this period may have changed wheels over time, and a similar 13-inch size can still vary meaningfully in width and sidewall height.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall

650-16 is a bias-ply 16-inch size used on the 1976 Chevrolet Suburban and Ford F-100. Available products are unusually varied, with blackwall and wide whitewall choices from BFGoodrich, Coker Classic, Firestone, and Garfield. Listed specifications include 4.50- to 5.00-inch rim-width guidance on some products and load capacities around 1580 lbs at 32 psi. Although this year-page application count is small, the product range makes 650-16 attractive for owners who care about visual style as much as basic fitment, particularly on restored trucks where whitewall width can significantly change the final look.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Dual-White-Stripe, Narrow Whitewall

J78-15 is a bias-ply 15-inch size used on 1976 Chevrolet Van Sportvan, Chevrolet Van Van, GMC Rally, and GMC Vandura applications. The available BFGoodrich choices include a narrow whitewall and a dual white stripe, both in the Silvertown Classic Bias Ply series. Listed specifications show 5.50- to 7.00-inch rim-width compatibility and a 1860-lb load capacity at 32 psi. This makes J78-15 especially relevant for van owners who want a period-correct 1970s sidewall look rather than a plain utility blackwall, while still staying within the appropriate bias-ply format.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Dual-White-Stripe, Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall

G78-14 is a bias-ply 14-inch size used on the 1976 Dodge Charger, Dodge Coronet, Ford 500 & Squire, and Plymouth Fury. Current products include BFGoodrich and Coker Classic offerings in dual white stripe, narrow whitewall, and wide whitewall styles, giving this size a strong period-correct visual range. Listed examples fit 14-inch rims with recommended widths from 5.00 to 7.00 inches and a 1620-lb load capacity at 32 psi. For owners of larger domestic coupes and sedans, G78-14 offers flexibility in sidewall presentation without stepping outside classic bias-ply construction.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Pin-White-Stripe, Redline, RWL

E70-14 is a bias-ply performance-style size used on the 1976 Dodge Dart and Plymouth Duster. Available products come from Firestone and Goodyear in period-themed lines such as Wide Oval and Custom Wide Tread, with sidewall treatments that include pin white stripe, redline, and raised white letters. Listed rim-width guidance centers around 6.0 to 7.0 inches, and load capacities are stated at about 1400 lbs at 32 psi. This makes E70-14 especially appealing for owners who want a late muscle-era look on compact performance-oriented Mopar applications.

9.50R16.5 is a radial heavy-duty truck size listed for the 1976 Dodge Pickup and Ford Van E-350 Econoline Van. It stands apart from the many bias-ply 16.5-inch sizes used elsewhere in the year, so construction is an important part of proper fitment here. No product listing is shown for 9.50R16.5, which makes wheel-diameter and wheel-type confirmation especially important before searching by size. On truck and van applications, similar-looking 16.5-inch markings can differ substantially in construction, load behavior, and intended service, so exact matching matters.

8.75R16.5 is a radial 16.5-inch truck and van size used on the 1976 Dodge Pickup, Ford E-250 Club Wagon, and Ford Van E-250 Econoline Van. It shares its wheel diameter with several bias-ply commercial sizes from the same year but remains a distinct radial application. No product listing appears here, so owners should confirm both the construction type and wheel specification before selecting a replacement path. For vehicles that have seen fleet or work use, this is especially important because wheel swaps and mixed-size histories are common on surviving trucks and vans.

8.00R16.5 is a radial 16.5-inch size listed for the 1976 Dodge Pickup. As a single-application fitment on this page, it deserves careful verification against the truck’s exact wheel and current configuration. No product listing is shown here, so the size primarily serves as a fitment identifier rather than a direct shopping route. Because 16.5-inch truck wheels are often confused with 16-inch wheels by casual buyers, checking the actual wheel stamping and the existing tire marking is one of the most important steps before moving to any replacement option.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall, RWL, Dual-Redline, Redline, Blackwall

205/70R14 is a radial size used on the 1976 Ferrari 308, Lotus Esprit, and Mercedes-Benz 450. This is one of the more upscale and performance-oriented 14-inch applications in the year, and the available product range reflects that. Choices include narrow whitewall, redline, dual-redline, and raised white letter styles from Maxxis and BFGoodrich, with listed rim-width recommendations spanning 5.00 to 7.50 inches depending on product. Stated load capacity reaches 1433 lbs at 35 psi on several listings, making this size useful for owners balancing classic appearance with sporty 1970s fitment needs.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL, Wide Whitewall, Blackwall, Pin-White-Stripe, Narrow Whitewall, Redline

215/70R15 is a radial 15-inch size used on the 1976 Ferrari 365, Maserati Bora, and Maserati Khamsin. Current offerings span several styles, from blackwall sport radials by Dunlop and Avon to raised white letter and wide whitewall options from Cooper and BFGoodrich. Listed fitment guidance ranges from roughly 5.5 to 7.5 inches in rim width, with stated load capacities around 1620 to 1653 lbs on some products. This variety makes 215/70R15 a flexible choice for owners who want to preserve the correct size category while tuning the visual character toward sport, touring, or classic presentation.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

145R13 is a narrow metric radial size used on the 1976 Fiat 128, Fiat X-1/9, MG Midget, and Renault Renault. This is a distinctly small-car and sports-car fitment, and its relatively slim section helps preserve the light, narrow-tire feel that many of these cars originally relied on. Available blackwall radial products include Michelin XAS-FF and Firestone F560, with a stated 825-lb load capacity at 44 psi on the Firestone listing. Because these applications are compact and often sensitive to steering effort and fender clearance, staying close to the proper size is especially worthwhile.

160R13 is a radial size listed specifically for the 1976 Fiat 131. It sits between narrower compact import sizes and the more common 165R13 category, making exact size identification more important than usual. No product listing appears here, so owners should verify whether the car still uses its intended wheel and tire format before comparing neighboring metric sizes. On imported sedans of this era, even small differences in section width can affect the car’s period-correct look, and wheel width should also be checked before moving to any substitute size.

Rim Diameter: 16.5 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

12-16.5 is a heavy-duty bias-ply size used on the 1976 Ford F-350. Available STA products include Traxion and Transport blackwall truck tires, with listed load capacities up to 3000 lbs at 45 psi and specified 9.75-inch rim widths on some versions. This is a highly specialized truck application, so it should not be approached like a general passenger-car fitment. On surviving heavy-duty pickups, confirming the exact wheel width, wheel diameter, and current load needs is essential, especially if the truck has been used for towing, hauling, or other vocational service.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Redline, RWL, Pin-White-Stripe, Blackwall

G70-14 is a bias-ply performance size listed for the 1976 Ford GT. The available product selection strongly emphasizes period muscle-era styling, with Firestone Wide Oval and Goodyear Custom Wide Tread options in redline, raised white letter, and pin white stripe treatments. Listed rim-width guidance generally falls between 6.0 and 8.0 inches depending on the product, and stated load capacity is about 1620 lbs at 32 psi. For a 1976 Ford GT application, this size is as much about achieving the right visual statement as it is about matching the wheel diameter.

H70-14 is a bias-ply performance-style 14-inch size used on the 1976 Ford GT. It is a wider and more substantial fitment than many ordinary passenger-car 14-inch sizes and should be treated as its own specific application. No product listing appears here for H70-14, so buyers should confirm the exact tire marking on the car and the wheel width before comparing any nearby G70-14, HR78-14, or other 14-inch sizes. On sporty 1970s domestic cars, sidewall height and tread width choices can significantly alter both stance and period appearance.

JR78-14 is a radial 14-inch size used on the 1976 Ford Gran Torino & Brougham, Ford Torino, and Mercury Montego. It sits at the larger end of the 14-inch domestic radial range and suits substantial midsize-to-full-size passenger cars. No product listing appears here, so this size functions mainly as a fitment reference on the page. Because nearby HR78-14 is also common on related Ford and Mercury applications, owners should verify the exact sidewall marking rather than selecting by wheel diameter alone. The difference can affect proportions, clearance, and visual fullness.

DR78-14 is a radial 14-inch size used on the 1976 Ford Granada, Ford Maverick, Mercury Comet, and Mercury Monarch. It represents a common domestic compact-to-midsize radial fitment from the era and often appears among closely related alphanumeric radial sizes on the same make. No product listing is shown here, so accurate vehicle identification is key. On platforms like Granada and Maverick, adjacent sizes such as CR78-14, ER78-14, and FR78-14 may also appear by model or trim, making it important to match the exact specification rather than relying on a general family resemblance.

BR78-14 is a radial 14-inch fitment used on the 1976 Ford Maverick and Mercury Comet. This size sits in the smaller end of the domestic alphanumeric radial range and is distinct from the 13-inch BR78-13 size seen on other compact models. No product listing appears here, so the main value of this entry is clarifying correct vehicle application. For owners of compact Ford and Mercury cars, it is worth checking whether the vehicle still has its original wheel width and ride height, since those factors can influence how well a radial of this size performs and clears.

CR78-14 is a radial 14-inch size listed for the 1976 Ford Maverick and Mercury Comet. It forms part of a size progression used on compact domestic cars where nearby BR78-14 and DR78-14 fitments may also appear depending on equipment. No product listing is shown here, so careful tire-size confirmation remains the first step. Because these cars are often modified with aftermarket wheels, owners should confirm not only the size printed on the sidewall but also the actual wheel width and overall clearance if they are trying to return the vehicle to a stock-style fitment.

DR70-14 is a lower-profile radial size used on the 1976 Ford Maverick and Mercury Comet. Compared with the taller 78-series alphanumeric radials found elsewhere on these cars, the 70-series format points to a shorter sidewall and a slightly sportier overall profile. No product listing appears here, so exact size identification is especially important before shopping adjacent 14-inch options. On compact cars, a move between 70-series and 78-series tires can materially affect stance, speedometer relationship, and the visual balance between tire sidewall and wheel.

CR70-13 is a radial 13-inch size listed for the 1976 Ford Mustang. It is a lower-profile compact performance fitment rather than a general small-car economy size, so it should be considered separately from B78-13 or BR78-13 applications used on other versions of the Mustang and related cars. No product listing appears here, which makes accurate identification essential. If the car has aftermarket wheels or suspension changes, owners should take extra care to confirm current dimensions before assuming that any other 13-inch tire used on a 1976 Mustang will deliver the same result.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall

195/70R13 is a radial size used on the 1976 Ford Mustang and Mazda RX-4. The listed product is a BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial with a 7/16-inch narrow whitewall, giving this sporty 13-inch size a more refined period look than a plain blackwall. Product guidance shows fitment on 13-inch rims from 5.00 to 6.50 inches wide and a stated 1246-lb maximum load at 35 psi. For cars using this size, wheel width confirmation matters because the section width is notably broader than many smaller 13-inch import and compact domestic applications.

C78-15 is a bias-ply 15-inch size listed for the 1976 GMC Rally and GMC Vandura. This is a narrower van application than the larger G78-15 or J78-15 sizes also used on full-size vans from the period, so the exact size marking matters. No product listing appears here, making this entry primarily a fitment reference. Owners of full-size vans should confirm not only the sidewall size but also whether the vehicle has been altered for camper, custom, or commercial use, since those changes can affect wheel choice and load expectations.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall, Wide Whitewall

560-13 is a small bias-ply size used on several 1976 compact imports and sports cars, including the Honda Accord, Mazda RX-3, Renault Renault, Triumph Spitfire, and Volkswagen Dasher. Available products from BFGoodrich and Firestone include narrow and wide whitewall styles, with listed rim-width recommendations from 3.50 to 4.50 inches and a stated 850-lb load capacity at 30 psi. This is a strongly period-style fitment for lightweight vehicles, and it is especially relevant for restorers who want the visual character of a narrow bias-ply tire rather than switching to a modern radial look.

155R12 is a radial size listed for the 1976 Honda Civic. It is one of the smallest metric applications on the page and is specific to lightweight subcompact packaging. No product listing appears here, so the entry mainly serves to identify the correct fitment family. On very small cars like the Civic, tire size has a strong influence on ride height, steering feel, and body clearance, so selecting by the exact sidewall marking is especially important. Owners should also confirm wheel diameter carefully, since 12-inch applications are uncommon compared with nearby 13-inch sizes.

6.00-12 is a bias-ply 12-inch size listed for the 1976 Honda Civic. This reflects an early subcompact fitment approach and should not be confused with more common 13-inch compact sizes from the same year. No product listing appears here, so the primary consideration is accurate identification of the vehicle’s current wheel-and-tire setup. On a lightweight car, a change between 12-inch bias-ply and a different radial format can noticeably alter stance and gearing feel. Buyers should confirm both wheel diameter and the intended construction type before choosing a replacement path.

6.15-13 is a bias-ply 13-inch size used on several compact 1976 imports, including the Honda Civic, Mazda 808, Nissan F10, Subaru DL, and Subaru GL. It sits alongside radial alternatives on some of the same models, which makes it a useful reminder that year-and-model alone do not guarantee one construction type. No product listing appears here, so verifying whether the car is still on bias-ply wheels and tires is important before shopping other 13-inch options. For small imported cars, the narrow section and tall sidewall are a meaningful part of the original feel.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall

225/75R15 is a radial size listed for the 1976 International Scout II. Available products include whitewall radials from BFGoodrich, Coker Classic Star Series, American Classic, and additional variants within those lines, giving this size more visible style range than many truck-oriented fitments. Listed sidewall treatments include both wide and narrow whitewalls, with rim-width guidance generally from 6.00 to 8.00 inches and stated load capacities from 1874 to 2094 lbs depending on the product. It is a strong option for owners seeking a more refined radial presentation on a utility vehicle.

ER70-15 is a radial size used on the 1976 Jaguar XJ12C, Jaguar XJ12L, Jaguar XJ6, and Jaguar XJS. This is a distinctly premium 15-inch fitment for larger British luxury and grand touring cars, where maintaining the correct profile and overall proportion is important. No product listing appears here, so the page serves mainly to tie the size to the appropriate Jaguar applications. Because some 1976 Jaguar models also appear with 205/70R15, owners should verify the exact model and current wheel setup rather than assuming a single 15-inch radial size fits every car in the range.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall, Blackwall, Wide Whitewall

205/70R15 is a radial 15-inch size used on the 1976 Jaguar XJ6 and Jaguar XJS. Product choices are broad and include blackwall touring-oriented radials from Michelin and Avon, a narrow whitewall from Maxxis, and a wide whitewall option from American Classic. Listed rim-width guidance spans roughly 5.00 to 7.50 inches depending on the tire, with stated load capacity around 1499 lbs at 35 psi on several products. This makes the size appealing for owners who want to stay with the proper basic fitment while choosing between a cleaner European look and a more decorative classic sidewall.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall, Double-Whitewall

600-16 is a bias-ply 16-inch size listed for the 1976 Jeep CJ6. Product selection is extensive, with blackwall and wide whitewall choices from BFGoodrich, Coker Classic, Firestone, and Avon. Listed examples show fitment for 4.00- to 4.50-inch rims and load capacities around 1400 lbs at 32 psi. Although the application count is small on this year page, the product depth makes 600-16 one of the more versatile restoration-oriented sizes here. For a CJ6, it can support either a straightforward utility presentation or a more stylized vintage look depending on the chosen sidewall.

10-15 is a bias-ply size used on the 1976 Jeep Cherokee and Jeep Truck J-10. It is a wide, utility-focused 15-inch fitment that sits apart from standard passenger-car alphanumeric sizing and should be approached as a dedicated truck or SUV application. No product listing appears here, so the page mainly establishes correct vehicle association. Because Jeep trucks and full-size SUVs are often modified with different wheels, lifts, or body changes, owners should confirm current wheel width and clearance before comparing this fitment with smaller H78-15 or HR78-15 alternatives.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall

175/70R14 is a radial size listed for the 1976 Lancia Beta. The available product is a Travelstar narrow-whitewall radial, which offers a modest classic sidewall accent rather than a plain blackwall presentation. This size represents a lower-profile 14-inch import-car fitment, making it important to preserve the intended balance between tread width and sidewall height. No rim-width guidance is listed on the shown product, so wheel confirmation remains worthwhile before purchase. On European coupes and sedans of this era, a move to a taller substitute size can alter both appearance and response.

KR78-15 is a radial size listed for the 1976 Lincoln Continental. This is a substantial full-size luxury-car fitment and sits above many more common domestic 15-inch radial sizes used elsewhere in the model year. No product listing appears here, so the page’s value is in identifying the correct application rather than presenting a direct product path. For cars of this scale, size accuracy matters because overall tire height and sidewall volume contribute heavily to stance and presence. Owners should also verify whether the car remains on its original wheel type and suspension height.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Redline, Blackwall, Wide Whitewall

185/70R13 is a radial size used on the 1976 Lotus Elite, Mercury Capri, Toyota Corolla, and Triumph TR7. Available products include blackwall, redline, and wide whitewall options from BFGoodrich, Avon, and Dunlop, showing that the same basic size can support either sportier or more classic visual goals. Listed rim-width guidance generally falls between 4.5 and 6.5 inches, and stated load capacities on some products are around 1,047 to 1,135 lbs. This makes 185/70R13 a useful crossover size for imported sporty cars and select compact domestic-influenced applications.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, RWL, Redline, Blackwall

195/60R15 is a radial low-profile size listed for the 1976 Lotus Esprit. The available products include blackwall, redline, wide whitewall, and raised white letter options from BFGoodrich and Michelin, giving this specialized fitment a surprisingly wide style range. Listed rim-width guidance typically spans 5.50 to 7.00 inches, with stated load capacities around 1190 lbs at 35 psi on several products. Because this is a notably short-profile 15-inch application for the period, owners should confirm wheel width and body clearance carefully; moving away from the exact size can noticeably change the car’s stance and proportions.

205/60R14 is a radial size listed for the 1976 Lotus Esprit. It represents a low-profile fitment choice that is notably different from taller 70-series and 80-series 14-inch tires used on many other 1976 vehicles. No product listing appears here, so exact size verification is especially important before comparing any nearby 14-inch options. On a car as size-sensitive as the Esprit, changes in section width or sidewall height can strongly affect body clearance and the intended visual balance. Wheel width should also be checked carefully before attempting any substitute sizing.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RWL

235/60R15 is a wide radial size listed for the 1976 Lotus Esprit. Available products include blackwall and raised white letter choices from M&H Racemaster, Cooper, and BFGoodrich, with listed rim-width ranges running from 6.5 to 8.5 inches depending on the tire. Stated load capacity on several products is 1642 lbs at 35 psi. This is one of the broadest and lowest-profile fitments on the page, and it clearly sits in a performance-oriented category. Because section width is substantial here, wheel width and chassis clearance should be confirmed before selecting among the available styles.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall

185/70R14 is a radial size used on the 1976 Mazda COSMO, Toyota Celica, Toyota Corona, and Volvo 264. Current offerings include blackwall, wide whitewall, and classic sport-oriented radials from BFGoodrich, Avon, Dunlop, and Michelin. Listed rim-width guidance spans roughly 4.5 to 6.5 inches, with stated load capacities around 1201 to 1235 lbs on some products. This makes the size versatile for owners balancing import-coupe style, sedan practicality, and period presentation. It is also a good example of a 1976 metric radial fitment that can support either a clean European look or a more decorative classic finish.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall, Blackwall

735-14 is a bias-ply 14-inch size listed for the 1976 Mazda Truck Rotary Truck. Available BFGoodrich products include blackwall and narrow whitewall versions within the Silvertown Classic Bias Ply line. Listed specifications show fitment for 5.00- to 5.50-inch rims and a 1360-lb load capacity at 32 psi. As a single-application truck size on this page, it deserves careful confirmation against the actual wheel and the tire currently on the vehicle. For compact trucks, a change to another 14-inch size may affect both load behavior and the truck’s stock visual proportions.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

175R14 is a radial metric size used across several 1976 European and Japanese sedans and coupes, including Mercedes-Benz 230, Mercedes-Benz 240, Mercedes-Benz 300, Peugeot 504, Toyota Celica, Toyota Corona, Toyota Mark II, and Volvo DL. Available blackwall choices from Michelin and Vredestein include XAS, Sprint Plus, and Sprint Classic lines. Where listed, rim-width guidance typically falls between 4.5 and 6.0 inches, and some products show load capacities around 1,235 lbs. This is a strong fitment for owners looking to keep a stock-style 14-inch metric radial format on period imports.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Narrow Whitewall

185R14 is a common 1976 radial size used on the Mercedes-Benz 280, Nissan Lil Hustler, Nissan Pickup, Peugeot 504, Toyota Pickup, Volkswagen Campmobile, Volkswagen Kombi, Volkswagen Van Delivery Van, Volvo 265, and Volvo DL. Product choices include blackwall and narrow whitewall radials from Michelin, Phoenix, and Vredestein. Listed rim-width guidance extends from about 4.0 to 6.5 inches depending on the product, with stated load capacities around 1323 lbs on some listings. Because this size serves both passenger cars and utility-oriented vans or pickups, vehicle role should guide sidewall-style and product-series selection.

165/70R13 is a radial size listed for the 1976 Nissan F10. Compared with taller 155R13 or 165R13 fitments used on many small imports, this size points to a lower-profile 13-inch package. No product listing appears here, so exact size confirmation matters before shopping by wheel diameter alone. On compact hatchback-style cars, the difference between a 70-series and an 80-series tire can meaningfully change ride height and stance. Owners should verify not only the sidewall size but also whether the car is still using stock-style wheels rather than later replacements.

6.45-13 is a bias-ply size used on the 1976 Nissan PL610 and Nissan PL710. It reflects an older compact import tire convention that coexisted with radial sizing during the period. No product listing appears here, so this entry mainly helps identify the correct fitment family for those cars. Because the PL610 and PL710 can also be encountered with later replacement wheels or different radial conversions, owners should verify actual wheel diameter and current sidewall markings before comparing alternatives. Maintaining the intended narrow-section character can be important to both appearance and steering feel.

GR78-14 is a radial size listed specifically for the 1976 Plymouth Fury. It is a relatively isolated domestic 14-inch application on this page and sits above the more common FR78-14 and HR78-14 groupings in overall scale. No product listing appears here, so careful size confirmation is more important than broad comparison shopping. Full-size domestic sedans from this era often carried several nearby radial and bias-ply options across trims, so selecting by make alone is not enough. Owners should confirm the exact sidewall code and current wheel dimensions before ordering.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Wide Whitewall

185/70R15 is a radial size listed for the 1976 Porsche 911. Available products from Michelin, Dunlop, Avon, and BFGoodrich include mostly blackwall choices plus a BFGoodrich wide whitewall option, giving this sports-car fitment both authentic-looking and more stylized paths. Listed rim-width guidance ranges from 4.5 to 6.5 inches depending on the tire, with stated load capacities around 1257 to 1279 lbs on some listings. Because the Porsche 911 is sensitive to tire dimensions, preserving the exact size category and confirming wheel width are especially important when selecting among these products.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, RWL, Redline, Blackwall

215/60R15 is a low-profile radial size used on the 1976 Porsche 911. Available products include blackwall, redline, wide whitewall, and raised white letter options from American Classic, BFGoodrich, and Dunlop. Listed rim-width guidance generally spans 5.50 to 7.50 inches, with stated load capacities from about 1411 to 1477 lbs depending on the product. This is a performance-oriented 15-inch fitment where sidewall height is already relatively short for the era, so size discipline matters. Owners should confirm actual wheel width and chassis clearance rather than assuming another 15-inch radial will behave the same way.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall, Blackwall

165R15 is a radial metric size used on the 1976 Porsche 914, Saab 99, and Volkswagen Beetle. Product availability is strong, with blackwall, narrow whitewall, and wide whitewall options from Coker Classic, American Classic, Firestone, and BFGoodrich. Listed examples fit 15-inch wheels with recommended widths from 4.50 to 6.00 inches and load capacities around 1168 to 1170 lbs on several products. This makes 165R15 one of the more flexible classic-import sizes on the page, serving everything from a rear-engined Beetle to a sporting Porsche while still preserving period-correct proportions.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL, Blackwall, Redline, Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall

235/70R15 is a radial size used on the 1976 Rolls Royce Camargue and Rolls Royce Corniche. Product choices include blackwall, redline, and raised white letter styles from Avon, BFGoodrich, Cooper, and Michelin, giving this large luxury-car fitment a range of visual personalities. Listed rim-width recommendations run roughly from 6.0 to 8.5 inches, and some products carry stated load capacities around 1819 to 1896 lbs. Because this size serves substantial high-end coupes, owners should confirm both wheel width and the desired sidewall presentation; the right cosmetic treatment can significantly influence the finished character.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

175/70R15 is a radial size listed for the 1976 Saab 99. Available choices are blackwall radials from Avon and Vredestein, with rim-width guidance of 4.5 to 6.0 inches and a stated load capacity of 1,168 lbs at 51 psi on the Vredestein listing. This is a modestly low-profile 15-inch import size, and it should be kept distinct from more common 14-inch and 13-inch compact applications from the same year. On a Saab 99, preserving the correct aspect ratio and overall width helps maintain the car’s intended stance and steering character.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall, Wide Whitewall, Redline, Blackwall

750-14 is a bias-ply 14-inch size listed for the 1976 Toyota Pickup. Available products include BFGoodrich, US Royal, and Coker Classic offerings in narrow whitewall, wide whitewall, and redline styles. Listed examples fit 14-inch rims with 5.00- to 5.50-inch width guidance and load capacities from about 1500 to 1580 lbs at 32 psi depending on brand. This gives the size a broader cosmetic range than many pickup applications, making it useful for owners who want to preserve a compact-truck fitment while choosing between a straightforward work-truck look and a more stylized period presentation.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall, Blackwall

700-14 is a bias-ply 14-inch size listed for the 1976 Toyota Pickup. The available BFGoodrich products are offered in blackwall and narrow whitewall styles, both within the Silvertown Classic Bias Ply line. Listed specifications call for 5.00- to 5.50-inch rims and show a 1360-lb load capacity at 32 psi. Compared with 750-14, this is the smaller of the two Toyota Pickup numeric bias options shown here, so exact size verification matters. Compact pickups can look and sit noticeably different when moved between adjacent numeric sizes, even when the wheel diameter remains unchanged.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Redline, Narrow Whitewall, Blackwall

185R15 is a radial metric size listed for the 1976 Triumph TR6. Current products include blackwall, narrow whitewall, and redline choices from Coker Classic and Michelin within the XVS line. Listed rim-width guidance generally spans 4.5 to 6.5 inches, and stated load capacity reaches 1355 lbs at 35 psi on the Coker Classic redline. This gives TR6 owners a useful mix of touring-oriented and appearance-driven options while staying within a period-appropriate 15-inch radial format. Because sports cars respond strongly to tire dimensions, wheel-width confirmation remains worthwhile before purchase.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

185R13 is a radial metric size listed for the 1976 Triumph TR7. The current product shown is a Michelin XAS-FF blackwall radial, a classic-pattern option well suited to period import and sports-car applications. No rim-width guidance is listed here, so wheel confirmation is advisable before installation. This size differs in both profile and overall visual character from the 185/70R13 fitment also associated with the TR7, making accurate identification particularly important. For owners maintaining a stock-type setup, preserving the exact sidewall format can help retain the car’s intended balance and appearance.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall

600-15 is a bias-ply 15-inch size listed for the 1976 Volkswagen Beetle. Available BFGoodrich products include a blackwall and a 2.625-inch wide whitewall, both in the Silvertown Classic Bias Ply series. Listed specifications show fitment for 4.00- to 5.00-inch rim widths depending on version, with a stated 1150-lb load capacity at 32 psi. This is a classic Beetle-type size where sidewall shape and overall tire profile strongly affect the car’s visual balance. Owners comparing it with 165R15 should remember that the page lists those as separate construction and sizing approaches, not interchangeable assumptions.

155D13 is a bias-ply 13-inch size listed for the 1976 Volkswagen Rabbit. It appears alongside radial 155R13 and 155/80R13 applications on related compact cars from the same period, illustrating how construction and exact size can vary even on small economy vehicles. No product listing appears here, so this entry primarily helps identify the correct fitment family. On a Rabbit, staying with the intended diameter and profile is important because these cars are light and sensitive to changes in rolling height, steering feel, and wheel-arch clearance.
