Today while Cory and I were working on his 70 SDV we had to take out the spare tire.  He commented about using it since it still had what looked like new thread on it.  I check it out and its a bias ply tire.  I want to know if maybe it is orginal.  Sorry but I cant remember the brand but it had two strips for the white wall instead of just one if that helps.

Thanks,

  If the size is a L78-15  and one of the whitewall stripes is bigger than the other, its OEM.  There is a picture of the tire in the owners manual.    Regards,Lou

Thanks Lou,
  Thats exactly how it looks.  Im going to trade him another tire and rim for it as he doesnt care nor should he use a spare that old.  Plus he owes me a little for hanging upside down under the dash for an hour.
