Original tires were 6.00X16 with tubes as tubless hadn't been in production at that time.
White walls were not available as an option for trucks in 1946. As a matter of fact whites were not even available for cars in 1946 due to the war.
About 50 percent came with US Royal (now Uniroyal) tires and 25 percent with Firestone and twenty five percent with Good Rich.
An optional 15 inch truck type tire was an option.
