I am new on the T site but had a question. Did any TT trucks ever have solid rubber tires & if so what years?
Thanks Charles
 
Ford never supplied any solid rubber tires on the TT trucks or any other Model T. Yes they were fairly common as an aftermarket item installed on every year TT.

The TT (ton truck) rears (only as supplied by Ford) were solid rubber in the early years. 1917 thru ? I don't have my book in front to pin point end year. The car; never came with or were supplied by Ford with solid rubber tires.
 
The Ford TT was mfg. in quantity beginning July 27, 1917, but all are known as "1918" model year, first for the Ton Truck. Initial priced bare chassis came only with 32 x 31/2" solid rubber rear tires.

For 1918 year, option of pneumatic rear tires 32x41/2" at $590. The solid rubber tires $550.

Is that left front tire half flat, or is it an optical illusion?
