Yours has the stacked Wide O Oval (older style), AND Nylon Cord (second style). So that might be yet another step in between two of the styles that I described, that I have not yet seen on a 14" tire.
Or maybe the 15" sidewall had a little more room for them to play with on the stripe so they didn't have to unstack Wide O Oval to move the stripe in farther ?? I must admit to not paying as close attention to 15" tires as I have to the 14's, since all my cars came with 14's.

69 firestone F70x14
Late to the party also.
Pic 1- 3 is the spare tire from her 2C 69 Baltimore SS Chevelle. All 5 wheels have same date 1 6 9. Pic 4- 5 is the spare in a different 69 Chevelle that still has the ink on it.

My '70 SS has its original Wide Oval spare and SS wheel in the trunk. Tire and wheel have been driven on... maybe a thousand or 2 miles.

Wheel code AO?
Note your tread is like the one in post 1. Not like the 1969 type. Do not recall seeing the 1969 type on anything but YA wheels. Wheel- tire that started this thread is what I would call 1970 type.

Interesting that yours has three zeros to start the DOT like hers.
Her car is a third week of Feb Baltimore car. Not really an early one. All 5 wheels are dated 1 6 9 and YA marked. Does your tire show the ink between treads like hers? The tire that started this thread would sure look nice in the trunk of a 70!!!!! Shame about the trim ring scratches though.
