I think the tire retailers have charts that show the original sizes (like 9.00-36 as used on most F-20s back in the 30s) compared to the modern sizes. I know from an unpleasant experience that the numbers do not correspond exactly between the old system and the newer one (in other words, 9.00-36 is NOT equal to 9-36, as I understand it). Perhaps somebody with more experience than I have can say if I'm right on this. When I bought the 9-36 tires for my F-20, they just didn't look right. Of course, if you are not looking for "originality," then this may not matter. Wider tires would probably give better traction than the original 9.00-36. I remember that the F-20 I used (no weights, no water) slipped quite a bit in hard going.
