Gabi Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Hello everyone. I'm helping a friend who has 4 of the tires pictured here. He thinks they are from a Model A but is not sure. The pic on the right is a close up of the specs which says "5.25 18 4 ply". They carry the Road King brand on them. Any help much appreciated.

CarlLaFong Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 A tire is simply a tire. Many cars used that size. The wheel is not a Model A. Could be a 32 Ford. What is the bolt circle size? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabi Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 Thank you John. The diagonal of the bolt is 3/4". The distance between bolts is 5". Gabi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlLaFong Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Early Fords have a 5 1/2 inch bolt circle. That is to say, a circle 5 1/2 inches in diameter will land on the center of each bolt hole., I think it is a 32 Ford wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manuel Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 If its a Ford rim it may be 1932 as they were 18". Model A's were larger and 1933/4 Fords were 17".The wheel nuts were exposed and the hubcap was much smaller on A's.HTHManuel in Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
