H78-15-b on-off road tires
Anyone have a picture of what brand and style GM originally used for this tire? Is there anything currently available that is close in style to an original?

Re: H78-15-b on-off road tires
GM used Goodyear and Firestone tires often. My Blazer came with Goodyears. H78-15 ON/OFF road tires were bias ply. These are readily available, but you can substitute any 15" radial.

Re: H78-15-b on-off road tires
An assumption is the tires were the original ones since this Blazer has 12k miles currently. It was a fire dept. owned vehicle. The Blazer did not come with caps, so someone added wheel covers at some point early in its life.
