Can anyone tell me the stock tire size on a 1973 D200, 2wd? Would it have the same front and back?

7.50x16.5 tires... 9.50x16.5 optional
All 4 same unless spec'd for traction tread rear tires.
Most would do bigger rear tire for camper back in the day....

I see the vin plate there with some GWV #s on it, but no tire info.

At the early ones it should be listed on the hood tag..., if it´s still there.
You´ll find it also on the "Building Order" sheet, if you´re happy to find it. (under/behind seat, behind door panels, under dash...


Here´s an example of my 73 D100...

I hadn't paid attention. My bad. I think 76 had them but not sure now. Thanks for pointing that out.

I remember a '74 I ran came with 8.00 x 16.5 original. I upped it to 8.75 x 16.5 and it ran that way to around 220k hard miles.
