All tires were rationed during WW2,a family was allowed five tires of any condition and had to prove an 'essential for the war effort' reason to buy new from 1941 to 1945..all tires,not just 4.75-19 or 21..so the idea you could buy new 16" tires for your converted model a is wrong,in fact, the whole WW2 excuse for 16" rims is wrong..
