Here’s a chart from Speedway that may help.

Re: tire question for "37 ford fordor
I think some people run 215 70 16 tires.
I have 4 Bridgestone Ecopia 195-85-16 without tubes on wide fives. They work great but they don’t make that size anymore. Wide fives don’t have a safety bead on the inside of the rim so having the correct pressure is important. |
