old-tank 3,741 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Nice! The proportions of the tire and white fit the car perfectly. Link to post Share on other sites
leon bee 162 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 And what's the tire size again? Link to post Share on other sites
53 Roady 15 Posted December 28, 2015 Author Share Posted December 28, 2015 They are 235/75/15/11/100 ordered to be as close to the 8.00-15 originals as possible.Pat Link to post Share on other sites
leon bee 162 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 If you don't mind, what are the two last numbers? The 11/100? I'm needing tires for my 53 and have been trying to study up a little. Link to post Share on other sites
53 Roady 15 Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 I really don't know what they are but I included them because they are on my Diamondback invoice. The tires are DBII on a Toyo base. The standard ww was 3. They did not charge extra to adjust to 2.75, a choice I made based on the guidance of Al and Tank.Pat Link to post Share on other sites
leon bee 162 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Roady: One last question, if you please: is it a struggle getting that size tire up in the rear fender? Link to post Share on other sites
buick man 404 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 ,,, we think 11 / 100 is first the party province then the factory number in China Link to post Share on other sites
53 Roady 15 Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 No problem with the car fully jacked up. It might be a problem with a bumper jack but I,m not going to trust my bumper or my life to one of them. I know that 2.25 or even 2,15 might be closer to the width of the original 8.oo-15s but the 2.35s are taller and as close as we can get to the correct overall diameter. I had the spokes off my Olds on it with 2,25-70 series and it drove OK but looked modernized.Pat Link to post Share on other sites
