I put 15 inch wheels on my 40 Tudor.
They came from a 70s' Ford pickup.
Had to go through a couple to find some straight ones.
I used blackwall Radial tires (Cheap).
215 x 15 or 225 x15, with about 40 pounds of air in them
Any thing bigger is a bitch to get off the rear of the car.
They work well for me. Ride well. Ok if you dont have to Parallel Park.
I am 76 and dont have an issue with the steering.
