Where can I buy a fabric 5:50 x 18" tire cover?
Where can I buy a fabric tire cover for the rear mounted spare on my '32 5 window. I have some cool graphics in mind to put on it. Jim in San Jose

Try a local upholstery shop or a boat cover shop. Some old timer will probably be able to help you

I got mine from Summit Racing....You'll need to provide the outside diameter of the tire on the wheel you have....

Thanks everybody for your suggestions. I want to put a "Roar with Gilmore" gas logo with the Lion on it. I saw one years ago and it looked great to me. Thanks again. Jim

Robert,
If his 5.50 x 18 tire is B.F. Goodrich it is unlikely a Model A cover will fit as those are BIG tires compared to other 5.50s such as Firestone. I believe that LeBaron Bonney offers fabric tire covers as well. |
