The Ford Barn - View Single Post - 33,34,and 35 Spare Tire Cover Dimensions and related Tire Sizes

Does anyone have dimensions for 1933, 1934 and 1935 Ford Spare Tire covers and the corresponding tire sizes these fit? I have a 1934 Ford Fordor with a spare tire mount but without a spare tire and want to purchase a spare tire cover, and then a wheel and tire to fit. I figure I will start with the cover, as that is harder to find. Once I have that, the wheel and tire should be simple. I see some original covers on line but the dimensions reported seem to be all over the map, and I'm not sure they really have the correct year identified - or that it is really for a Ford. The spare doesn't necessarily need to be for a 34, as my car has 15" aftermarket wire wheels, so likely anything I get won't be a functional spare - just for looks.

What I would like to know is the OD and ID of the face cover, and the width and OD of the tread cover for 33, 34 and 35 - and what tire size corresponds to these. I know that 33 & 34 wheels are 17" and 35 wheels are 16".
