“What tires should I run on my Hot Rod” seems to be asked time and time again. The real answer is any type of tire that you like. But if you are trying to emulate a certain time period in hot rodding history, there are specific styles that were used during particular time periods.

Editor’s Note: This is not the definitive guideline of what tires you should run, but more of a discussion on the subject.
