1949 b1b specification

[JJB]

Hello , I have a 49 b1b with 15 “ original wheels . Can someone tell me the original tire size from the factory? The person I bought it off had radials on it and I am putting it back to original. Also can someone tell me the original Color of the Wheels and if there were color options for the wheels that year ? Thanks

Here is what the Parts catalog shows.

My B2C has the 15" X 5-1/2" wheels and I recall that it had 6.50-15's on the front and 7.00-15 tires on the rear.

And I believe your wheels should be black. They started the Dodge Truck Cream (yellow) on the wheels with the B2 series trucks.
