My default all purpose tire is the BFG Radial T/A.  Predictable, decent ride, reasonably priced, and available in a wide variety of sizes.  Depending on the wheels you should be able to get a 205/60-15 under a stock late model, they are very close in size to the later '66 spec 7.00-13 and will ride just a little better than a 205/55.

The 15 inch tires are 10 years old and have turned into concrete!  I'm looking for recommendations for a replacement tire.  Soft ride and easy turning are the main requirements not performance or wear life. My wife will be driving this car often and she is more interested in comfort. Any recommendations?
