Now, let's see - the rears, 265-60x17 max pressure is 44 psig (Dunlop SP5000)
Then, the 205-60x15, max pressure is 51 psig (Yokohama AVID)
The OEM 4.75x19 for a '31 Ford - 35 psig

Naaaaah. Big, heavy tires and at 22-24 psig and on a 24-2500 pound car, they will last a loooooong time.

I'll either do a guesstimate or use Roger's good idea.
