| I'm getting ready to order wide whitewalls for the 1956 Dodge Sierra. I'll order the 7.60 x 15 optional size. Can anyone advise on the correct width of the white wall?
Any recommendations on tires? Friend ordered Cokers for his wife's Edsel wagon and they've been nothing but problems. Suggestions appreciated.
Thank You Kindly and Merry Christmas to all. |
