What is the correct tire size for a 37 chevy pickup.

Thanks, Steve



Steve,

Thanks for your question.

Standard tire size for the 1937 Chevrolet Half Ton Pickup Truck is 6.00-16 4ply.

Optional were 6.00-16 6ply, 6.50-16 6ply, 6.50-17 6ply, and 7.50-15 6ply. The most popular wheels to use are the 15 inch wheels, referred to as artillery wheels. They are 5-1/2 inches wide. 1937 was the first year for these wheels but they used them for several years following. The wheels would have been black though unlike this example.




Hope this helps. If you have any more questions, I'll see what I can do to help.

Doug
