Trailer Tires While Restoring?

52b3b Joe used 225/75/15 on his '48 DeSoto. He didn't say what size rims he used, though I'd assume 5.5 wides, and didn't mention rubbing issues. I have 5.5 rims on my '48, and was planning to go that route, but fate dumped 5 barely used B.F. Goodrich Silvertown white wall bias plys on me, cheap. If you have time before you have to move it, keep checking FB Marketplace...

For rollers, I'd dig through a tire pile. Right now people are swapping to snow tires like crazy. I have 225/70R15s on stock rims for my 50 Dodge. They rub near lock in the front and slightly in the back when swaying the body hard in fast cornering. I like the idea of trailer tires, and I wouldn't be afraid to rip some test runs on them. Good luck on the move.
