Mike, I generally go for the least expensive option when it comes to tires,
especially for a car that I'm not using as a daily driver. You can easily
fir 175's on the car, and probably 185's as well (I have those on the '76B
which, granted, has a slightly higher ride height than your '69). I would
probably go with 175s.
