Would anyone know what kits came with the Goodyear Blue Streak Speedway Special tires ?

In measuring the tires I have the inside diameter is 20 mm the outside diameter measures 30 mm and the width measures 13 mm ... I'm looking for rims that will fit these dimensions ... Everything I have in my parts box are

16 mm ... Thanks for the help in advance ... Hopefully I can find rims now ... The tires are really cool ... Got 16 of them in a junk box at a garage sale

I just measured some 1/20 scale Firestone tires I have, and the I.D. was 20mm, so I think you're going to need some 1/20 scale wheels.

The 1/25 MPC GYBSSS tires I have are considerably smaller, too.

These are the tires ... I'm not sure I have any 1/20 scale rims in the parts box ... I'll do some digging ...

Thanks again for the help

I would say those are definitely 1/20 scale tires, and most likely from an MPC kit. Here are two slightly wider 12.50-15 1/20 scale GYBSSS tires for reference:], the first one shown with a 1/20 Corvette wheel inside:
