What are you looking for?   Something show quality and correct?   Radials or bias?   

Coker Tire has a pretty wide selection and many shops can / do buy from them.   Diamondback may have something.  There are a couple others but tend to specialize in specific cars or eras.  IF those options are more than you were looking to spend about the only somewhat easy to get tire that has a narrow white wall is the Hankook Optimo.  Most of the bigger stores can get them.   There may be a few others especially from more rural dealers but its getting to the point where the specialty vendors are going to be the only option.

I put these on all my 65-66 cars and love them.  Here they are if going original:

They ride great.  Put over 1200 miles on my '65 last year for example.

I have the Hancooks. No problems, just the narrow whitewall.
