White wall width on a 65?

If I recall correctly it was the triple stripe 9.00-15 tire.

1965 and 1966 used a triple stripe design like below.   

You can get reproductions of them now in Bias or radials.

See attached screen capture from the CLC 2018 Judges manual, page 34 in the tire section. Scroll to bottom to see standard and optional tires for the 1965. The manual can be viewed and downloaded at https://cdn.ymaws.com/www.cadillaclasalleclub.org/resource/resmgr/judging/CLC_Judging_Manual_2018.pdf.

Looks like triple stripe 3/16" + 1/2" + 3/16" was standard, with 1 1/4" single optional depending on body style.

Been running with the Coker triple whites bias ply tires on my '65 for 6 years.  5000 plus miles and they ride great!  Had radials on them when I bought car and I ditched them.  Chuck
