Hey all... what was the original tire size that came on Series III 109 trucks? Mine is a 80' 5 door safari wagon...

OEM is 7.50 x 16lt ,which are about 31" tall, depending on who you get them from

I only have specs for is 1971

88 = 6.00X16
109 = 7.5016
109 one ton = 9.00X16

Avon Tractions are in quite a few vintage pictures of the period. You can get them at the link above. Very pricey for some authenticity.
