Default Spare tire ID help

When I bought my 69 this tire and rim was in the trunk. I looked for numbers and dates but could find any. So I figured I'd ask some of the great knowledge here for help any thoughts!

That's nothing more than an after market replacement by Gates Rubber corp. It appears to be of early to mid 60's vintage and even the wheel may be a replacement as well.
No Camaro ever had that style tire.
I took one similar out of the trunk of granpaps 68 Impala..
Value isnt much other than a display, conversation piece.

Some early wheels aren't dated or coded, outside.
But on the band where you'll mostly see the manufacturing company name and standard code like JJ which is mostly a disc brake fitment wheel.
