Stock tire size 1965 New Yorker Wagon??

[emmd61]

Hey all,

My 65 NYer wagon has nonstock tires on wider rims. I am going to bring it back stock. Anyone know what the stock tire size was in 65? I have a 65 NYer sedan with stock rims to use original size 14 inch rims.

Thanks---Arthur

Being a wagon I'd be willing to bet it originally came with 8.55 x 14 tires.

From the Hamtramck-Historical website Library.

On my car the trailer tow package increased the tire size but I think the 9.00 x 14 was the largest tire anyway.
