Goodyear P255/60R15 Customgard Flexten Tire – OWL 

Give your classic the right late-era performance stance with the Goodyear P255/60R15 Customgard Flexten Tire – OWL. Featuring a clean Outlined White Letter (OWL) sidewall and a wide, muscular footprint, this tire is a strong choice for restorations and vintage builds where the wheel-and-tire package needs to look factory-correct—especially on 15-inch performance setups.

The P255/60R15 sizing delivers a wide, road-ready radial profile that helps fill the wheelwell and create that low, confident look many classic muscle cars are known for. The OWL sidewall adds an understated pop of white lettering—more subtle than full RWL—making it a great fit for owners who want period style without an overly bold sidewall.

Why the P255/60R15 Customgard Flexten OWL is a restoration favorite

Many late-’70s and early-’80s performance cars used wider radial sizes and more refined sidewall branding. This tire fits that era perfectly—delivering the right proportions, a classic OWL presentation, and a period-appropriate look that complements factory wheels, stripes, and trim.

It’s also a popular choice for restorations of iconic models like the ’78 Corvette Pace Car, created to celebrate the Indy 500 Silver Anniversary. When the goal is capturing that factory-era stance and presentation, the correct tire profile and sidewall treatment are a big part of the finished look.

Tire Cleaning & Maintenance
For tire cleaning, we recommend using an SOS pad along with soap and water. This method works for routine cleaning and effectively removes the protective blue layer from white walls and raised white letters on your new tires.

DO NOT use any chemicals to clean your tires; this can cause the tire’s white walls and raised white letters to turn brown. If you use chemicals to clean your tires and your white walls turn brown, you can not make a warranty claim.

14” Goodyear Tire Fitments
Goodyear Polyglas tires were first used and going forward in April of 1969. For Goodyear RWL fitments for vehicle build dates beginning in April 1969 through October 1969, use Goodyear Polyglas SKU# CB5KL. November through December of 1969, a running change was in place with Goodyear Polyglas installations. Thus either the CB5KL or CB5KJ may be used. As you can see, this encompasses the first half of the 1970 build year. Prior usage from 1967 through March of 1969 was the Goodyear Speedway Wide Tread series.

15” Goodyear Tire Fitments
The Z28 cars of this generation are well-defined. 1967 735/15 Red Line SKU# CBBMV. 1968 & 1969 Goodyear Speedway Wide Tread GT E70/15 RWL STK# CB3EX. 1970 – see running change note above. F60/15 RWL STK# CB4GF or CB4GG, depending on the vehicle build date. The F60/15 RWL STK# CB4GG was used from January 1970 through the end of first-generation O. E. bias fitments.
