Good burnout spec tires.
I think these are 215 70 14's. I think. Damn, I can't remember. THe second ones are 225 70 15's and the last ones are 235 70 15's
The OEMs are 5.5" wide and the other 2 wheels are 15x7's with a 4" backspace.

The only tires I can find around me that are 14's and are the always wonderful walmart spec 185 wide.
(which are 38$ each)

You can get any size 14 you want, in a BFG TA.....
You need to shop around! https://www.tirerack.com/tires/Tire...4&rearWidth=225/&rearRatio=70&rearDiameter=14
205/70R14 would work on 14 x 7, lots of all season radials but also a few interesting high performance summer tires.
for example the Vrednestien Sprints have a low UTG

Buy Passenger Tire Size 205/70R14
With 7" rims, 215 widths should work well and you could go to a shorter aspect ratio.

If i were to buy any size 14 tires, i would get the smallest possible so that I could pretend that my car is fast by chirping them all the time.

Well that is just a side effect of being cool
Those are pretty tall. I used them when trying to get some additional ground clearance. Would want to watch out for front fender clearance - especially on an 66 (vs my 67)

According to the new nomenclature I had 195 60 14s and 235 60 14s on the Ranchero and they filled up the fender wells very well.
Rears only.
I have 165 80-15's on the front now.

Those Cooper Cobras are the tire of choice on the Hobby Stocks at the dirt oval here.
Wow, there is a very very large tornado on the ground in Alabama, has been down on the ground for well over an hour. Still gaining strength, over 1.5 miles wide at times. Debris is reaching 10,000 feet and the debris ball diameter is over 3 miles.
