Question
what model and size tires originally came on a 1989 chevy beretta gt

Answer
Brenda,

On every vehicle sold in the US, there is a sticker – commonly called the tire placard - that lists the original tire size and the proper pressure for that size.  The placard is usually located on a doorpost or in the glove box – but sometimes it is located in the trunk or on the fuel filler door.

BTW, it doesn't matter who makes the tire or what pressure is listed on the tire's sidewall, if the tire size is the same as the placard, then the pressure listed on placard is also appropriate.

According to Tire Guides, A 1989 Chevy Beretta GT originally came with P205/60R15's inflated to 30 [si front and rear.  However, there was a GTV version that came with P205/55VR16's also inflated to 30 psi.  You should check your vehicle placard to be sure that this is correct as the book has been known to be wrong.
