  • Champion tires

    Anyone know what brand of tires came on a 1948 studebaker champion convertible? Also the correct width white wall? Where are they available?

    This is the original spare tire that came with my '50 Champion. As you can see it's a Firestone. If you want more info on it let me know....

      My dad, who also formerly owned a 1950 Champion, was later a car salesman. One of his favorite lines when selling used cars was, "Spare tire's never been on the ground!" He'd love this one.

          Brad, how far do they take the "appropriate size" thing in the stock classes? Is the width and height now measured with specific parameters written for each class, or are obviously much wider WWW tires just docked? I know each meet may be drastically different, but I just wondered how it recently has been executed.
