Does anyone know what tire brands the factory supplied for 66 Plymouths. A guy told me he has an original spare out of a 66 Belvedere for sale, but it is a Davis Premium Sentry. I have my doubts that Davis was an OE supplier. Anyone know for sure?

My first '68 Fury came with Firestone tires and had the original spare in the trunk when I got it and it was my dad's car when brand new.
My dad's '65 Mustang, still has the original spare, and it is also a Firestone whitewall.
I grew up in that era and it seems that new cars came with Goodyear, Firestone or maybe a Uniroyal.
I also have my doubts about a "Davis Premium Sentry" as being the actual tire from the factory...

My 1966 Plymouth Fury 1 2dr sedan came with Goodyear 2ply/4ply rated bias plys from the factory. Not the world's greatest tires but as I recall I got nearly 25,000 miles on them before they needed replacing.
