"The Goodyear tires have the authentic Diamond tread as used during Model A production. (All Model A tires were inflated to 35 psi). U.S. made, 4 ply polyester.
475 x 19" Blackwall tire."

I like the look of these!:D The previous set was on the car 25 years. Very low mileage.

The body color is what Ford called Andalusite Blue. Very dark, almost purple. Fenders and trim are black, with French Gray pinstripe.

Nice looking car. What is the performance rating of those tires? I am sure they will give you a great ride.

Performance rating is "Stay Alive- Do not exceed fifty-five." With a tiny tire contact patch, mechanical brake linkage, and a bias adjustment of lock rears first, you need to be thinking "Where can I achieve stationary in the next quarter mile."
