I believe the original tire was an 8.00 x 14. They didn't list aspect ratio then, but most were 78.

Have no idea which white wall you need. Bet someone at PY could help out.

Here is a link for the only one that popped up on that size. Don't know if this wide white is correct though:

Rusty Small can probably help you get what you need. Screen name is SmallHurst.

Should be 1" white wall.

"PO1" sounds like the RPO for the full wheel cover (at least that is what it represents these days); not a tire RPO.
