Tire Size Problem - 2 stroke restoration - Long Nose

I am restoring a 1967 96 2 stroke long nose, oil injected but is not the Monte Carlo. I need help finding the correct size to install. Tom Nelson & Bruce Harbison here in Denver have been a great help to locate brocures listing tire sizes but the manuals are vague. Bias ply tires will be purchased but the question is size & white wall or black wall.
Listed for the 1967 96 is as follows;
96 Sedan 5.20 x 15 Bias Ply
95 Wagon 5.60 x 15 Bias Ply
96 Monte Carlo 155 x 15 Radial
We have a owners manual for 1967 and the picture on the front shows white walls. I believe the tires I removed were the orignal and they were 5.60 x 15 Black walls and that does not correspond to the chart above.
If any one knows let me know your take on this matter. Maybe we should contact Peter Bakstrom in Sweeden to get this matter answered.
