SW Minnesota | I have a 1979 Ford L700 single axle truck with an 18' grain box on it. It still has the usual 20" split rims on it with 9.00 tires on Dayton wheels that most trucks of this vintage were equipped with. Since it is getting very hard to find tires for it anymore, I purchased a set of 22.5 rims that will fit on the Dayton spoke center but still need to find the correct tire size to put on them.
So that is my question - what radial tire size would be the closest to the original 9.00 x 20 tires? The replacement 22.5" tires will have to be roughly the same height (plus or minus and inch or two) and also since they are radials, they cannot be too wide and touch "cheek to cheek" when under load.
TIA for your suggestions. | |
