Steve, i think 225 75r x 15. Had those on my 52 Vicky....get your wallet out $$$$. My last Cokers weren't the best...i'd google Diamon Back & check them out...or be "old fashioned and call them.......

I called Black Diamond, Johnny took my call; very nice guy! He said they had 6.70/15's and they make the white walls to the customer's desire as to it's width! The white starts at about 1" from the rim, and I'm thinking about 2"-2 1/2" of white. $239.oo per tire/$90 shipping. Then I have to pay-Mounting and Balancing!! All in all about $1090.00 total for 4 tires!! Very pricey deal! But I have to do it!! Regards, Steve Lee

Assuming you called Diamond Back tires, the one inch gap is strange. My Diamond Back tires have white walls all the way to the rim.

You might reconsider the whitewall size, the size in 1950 was larger than 2 1/2". http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/Ford/1950%20Ford/1950%20Ford%20Crestliner%20Foldout/image4.html Tom

I called them in the Carolinas (North I think)and Diamond Back told me the answer. They make radials in 710-15, just like the originals; and make the white wall any size width that you designate!! (Full 1" 2" 3", what ever!! SUPREME!!! Regards, Steve Lee
