I think the change was 67.5. The later wheels are marked with the width,
the early ones are not.

Remember that early roadsters had 4" wide wheels and later had 4.5" wheels.
(Nor sure where the change happened.) Not sure a 185 tire is recommended
for a 4" wheel?

Hey Vince,
The orignal tire size for the '66 1600 was 5.60-14. However if you can find
this size you will pay a pretty penny for them. I know someone that did,
looks great but they paid a lot. After trying a couple of modern cross-overs
the size that works good for me is 175/70R/14.
Good luck
Chris

I'm wondering what the original tire size was for a 1966 1600 Roadster? I
need to replace the rotten tires on my project car, on the original steel
wheels.
Thanks,
