Tires for M170

[Walrus]

Good Morning, I have a 1954 M170 in need of new tires. I am looking at Coker Vintage Tires 650 - 16 super traction, is this a tire appropriate for my MV or should I look some where else? Sorry if this sounds simple but I am not a mechanic I was a HM in the Navy and inherited this M170 when my Dad passed. So I am trying to honor him and keep the MV on the road. Thank you for your time and help https://www.cokertire.com/tires/650-16-sta-super-traction-6pr.html

No that is a civilian tread tire, to be authentic you need the 7.00-16 NDCC which is their sku 676467.

Also check with older jeep model parts places on the internet. Several have n.d. tires appropriate for your jeep.

I forgot to add: Willis Jeep Parts or Vintage Jeep Parts.

Kaiser-Willys is a good place to start. https://www.kaiserwillys.com/

Thanks everyone for the info. looks like I need to do just a little more research and start and envelope for new tires for my jeep.

Coker, Kaiserwillys, Summitt, Jegs, ArmyJeepParts, all carry the tires you'd be looking for to start with. There's more I'm sure, but this will get you started.

Summit racing is also a good option (it's where I bought my NDTs). they also have free shipping on orders over $100.
