What wheels tires and hubcaps came on the 1971 FairladyZ-L car in Japan? Same as 26th-Z posted above?

I'll check my 10/69 Fairlady Z-L later on today, when I get time.

4.5" on the early FairladyZ and 5" on the 1971 on, at least that is what I've been told.  .... I finally located a set of 5" steel wheels and am trying to locate tires, hopefully Bridgestones, which will be correct.  I'm going to put the 4.5" in the spare spot so the lid will close, and run the 5".

Is there a tire made today which would be "correct" for the 5" rims on a 1971?

Vredestein makes tires in the original stock size.

Didn't find those on their website ... :-(

The original stock size is 175 HR 14

AZ-240z - thanks for the lead on the stock tires. I have the original wheels and D hubcaps for one of my 71s and can now get the original tire size.

cheers

Original size, but not original make.  Those would be Bridgestones ... NLA

Kerrigan - understood, but I don't believe Bridgestone makes the 175 HR 14 size anymore (??).

NLA = No Longer Available - just clued in - sorry. 

Apparently Bridgestone makes 195/70/14 which would be close.  I think that's what I'm going with on the 5" rims.  There is an original spare in good condition on a 4.5" on eBay now; I bought one of the three he was selling for the spare.  At least the damn cover will sit flat.

Kerrigan,

 

How do you know that Bridgestones were original equipment on your Fairlady Z?
