Yeah it didn't occur to me that the wrong tires could be on the car.
According to this interchange:
Coker Tire Size Cross Reference/Interchange P 235/75R15 interchange with 8.00-15 tires, which is what I have on my Cavalier IIRC.
8.20-15 tires should be even wider I think, so I would worry about that
According to the Packard Model Info on this website, you should have 7.00-15 tires on that car.
Packard Model Info, 1941 120 Convertible Coupe The closest interchange Coker lists is 7.10-15, which would be 215/75 R15, considerably narrower.
