My Corvette Black Book shows the '78 Pace Car was optioned with RPO QBS, which were "White Letter SBR (steel belted radial) Tires, Ps55/60R15". I did a little internet search and found what I believe to be the tires you are looking for. Click on the link below and look about half way down the page that reads:

[b]#TIRESET28: 1978-1982 Goodyear Eagle GT P255/60R15 -- Set of 2 -- $250 each, plus shipping[/b]

Clink on this link:

I hope this is what you were looking for!

Good Luck!!

It would probably help if I used the right HTML tools offered to me. Let me try that link again:

You might try Coker Tire in Chattanooga, TN (my hometown :) ) They specialize in producing 'vintage tires'. My father had a set of their Wide Ovals on his '72 Z28.

Doug,
Do you have Goodyear tire line, size and/or speed rating that you are looking for?
