    I need some quick help... What size tire should I be looking for? Wanna' run a little larger tire in the rear than the front but otherwise stock... Can someone help me out?

    I appreciate it.... Not in front of the wagon at the moment and too lazy to drive to the shop to look at the tires...

    Also, can anyone recommend a CHEAP set of WW radials (the more like a bias ply they look the better)?

    Thanks,

    Tim

    Original size for a '55 Ford woulda been 6.70-15; wagons might have 7.10-15. These correlate to 205R75 and 215R75 in radials. You could of course go larger in the rear, like 225 or 235. If you're talking about wide whitewalls, there's no such thing as CHEAP, but I think the consensus is that Diamondback is a good product at the price. They have their own website, if I'm not mistaken.
