The Avon's are a VR rated tire-good in excess of 130 mph! I don't know about Shelby team cars using other tires but I believe Shelby was a Goodyear race tire dealer back then.

The Kraus web site does list some Dunlop vintage race tires but I've never seen any comments about them. The CR-65 or CR-82 tread pattern both look similar to the Goodyear Billboard tire tread pattern if that is any help.
