These classic BF Goodrich J78-15 bias ply whitewall tires feature a narrow 7/8 inch whitewall, fitting many popular full size and luxury cars of the 1960s and 1970s. The J78-15 size looks a little different than today's P-Metric tire sizing, but it's authentic for cars such as 1969 through 1974 full size Pontiac (like the Catalina), and other full size cars like the 1972 Oldsmobile Toronado. This is a tubeless tire. BF Goodrich bias ply narrow whitewall tires are made in the USA and DOT/ECE (European Community) approved where applicable. Whitewalls are smooth, with all stampings and lettering in the the black portion of the sidewall and are covered by the exclusive Life of the Tread warranty.
