Tire Size for 1940

Hi,
Looking to find out if a 225-70-16 tire would fit without issues on a 1940 160 coupe.
I'm looking at a Diamond Back touring tires for a white wall. These things are kinda pricey. I might go with Firestone Destination raised white letters.

thanks,
Mark

225 mm is 8.9 inches. That’s a lot wider than stock

wide might make it hard to steer in a parking lot.

Depends how wide the rim is as to whether this will fit properly.

Not really going for a concourse look. Being the car will be driven, I'd like something that performs well.
