Re: [FWDLK] Tires

6.70 x 15 was the original size, same as '56 Fords and Chevys. 

 

Chrysler had a deal with Goodyear and the vast majority of FL MoPars came with Goodyear tires.  There were exceptions.

 

If you go with radials, a close equivalent is 205/75 R15.

Subject: [FWDLK] Tires

Ok I have a question that is probably easy to answer.  I have a 1956 Plymouth Belvedere and I need new tires.  They are all mismatched as for that is how the car came when I purchased her.  I was hoping that someone would know the proper size that I would need to put on and maybe even the proper brand.  I want them to be tires that look nice but don't jump out and look as if they don't coincide with the style of the car. (4 door sedan)
