I am about to purchase new tires for my father-in-law's 1956 1300 and I am wondering what would be the appropriate size? I want to go with a radial, perhaps a whitewall, as the truck is being set up to drive, but I don't know what the original size was. I am guessing that a 15' 225 75 would be close, but any suggestions are appreciated.
The truck will be driving on a fair amount of gravel. My father-in-law is just going to drive it until we can get it into a body shop. Might as well enjoy it.
