How wide are the 19"s? Got room to turn a 31.25 without hitting brake rods or fender?

Stock A wheels. If I remember right they are 3-1/4 - 3-1/2" wide? I would be using them on the back.

Interesting that the picture shown is of a V8 wheel and tire, not a model A wheel. Proportions will be off. Don't see why you couldn't run it. JMO

I thought the same thing about the V-8 wheel. I am new to A's. What is the stock tire size for a '30-'31? 5.00-19"?

Help us to help you. What are you trying to accomplish here?
Short answer no, those tires are too wide for stock 19" A rims. |

Just a little taller tire on a 19" A rim is all. My concern was that these were too much tire for the wheel.

Re: What is the Tallest Tire I Can Run On a 19" Wheel?
I think that stock photo is deceiving. I am running 7.50-16" on my '34 on '39 wheels which if I remember correctly are only 3-1/2" wide. They look good and seem to preform alright. I am in the planning stages for another project that is forthcoming. I would simply like to run a little taller tire on the rear and just concerned about the width of the A wheels.
Thanks for the replies thus far. |

Here's a table of tire data I put together a few years ago. The Dunlop sold for 21" Model A wheels is getting pretty close to the OD you are looking at, and the Firestones aren't too far behind those.
