Default 1937 Tire size

Question regarding tire size. I was told there was two options when new 6.00x16 and 6.50x16.

6.00x16 was standard, 6.50x16 was optional,if that was your question.The extra height and girth of the 6.50 sure looks good!

How about 5.50 16? I think they were used on the 60 hp cars. Also a narrower wheel. (3.6 " wide)
