MGG,yep thats where i probably remember a fact such as that from my many yrs as non formally trained mech. i do still have a question as to tire psi with the new modern radials i am about to have mounted on the orig ford wide five artillory riveted wheels.i have used 30 psi in the 6.50-16s in the 3 yrs ive owned the '37 but the sidewall construction of old tires differ from the new 225/75R16 modern radials. what psi might better serve the new tire to fit and sta put on that narrower rim. i appreciate all ideas. thanks,Tom.
