Wheel and tire info never appears on the fender tag. You have to have the broadcast sheet or window sticker to know for sure exactly what your car came with. That said, some models had better tire wheel options included with their specific version. For example, all AARs have 15" ralleys as standard equipment so you wouldn't need the broadcast sheet for that one. I'm not sure of what came standard on a 72 'cuda. RWL tires? Probably a 14" steel wheel. Maybe painted body color. And then there are a ton of wheel and tire options. Your car probably came with the 14" ralley or road wheel with the F70 14 RWL polyglas tire.

Look on the drivers door pillar for tire pressure info. It will at least tell you the tire size. If it is a 70 series tire it would have been a 14x5.5 Road Wheel ( Magnum style ) with trim ring or a Ralley style with trim ring. Slant six and 318 models would have come with plain wheels with hubcaps. 15" wheels were not available in 72-74. 14" only.

According to the 1972 sales brochure moparleo is dead on. The tires were Goodyear F70-14 RWL if that option was selected.
