Does anyone make these now? Kelsey Tire has something similar, but EAGLE GT, not GT RADIAL. Not the exact right size either.

Raised outline white letter OWL tires. My 1979 Chrysler 300 came with them, but they were GR60-15 mounted on 15" x 6" wheels...almost not wide enough for a GR60 if you ask me.

Anything you might find will be catering to the 1978-1982 Corvette guys. They have wide wheels to accommodate P255 tires. Also, these OWL tires are very high priced...$650 & up.

The wheel should be included for that price. Absolutely insane.
 
I wrote to Kelsey Tire and asked if they had them. Here is their reply:

We do carry the GT Radial version; however, it is currently out of stock. If you’d like, I can place you on our backorder list. There’s no financial commitment required — I’ll just need your name, phone number, and the best email to reach you at. Once the tire is back in stock, we’ll contact you right away. At this time, we do not have an estimated arrival date. Amy.
