As near as I can read, the tires were 7.00 x 17. Modelhaus tires (www.modelhaustires.com) has them in a set for $17.00 including the wheels. Part number is 800.

 This is a great example of wheels that are available in die cast , but never covered by big plastic or resin. Sergey, those specific wheels shown in photo are 3 piece 18" wheels used from the late 40's to late 60's  Chevy GMC 1 ton trucks.  Diecasts out of boxes with some damage make cheap donors for parts. Not mine..https://www.ebay.com/itm/AMERICAN-MINT-WELLY-PREMIUM-1953-CHEVROLET-TOW-TRUCK-1-24TH-SCALE-IN-BOX/153310194246?epid=670814517&hash=item23b1ffea46:g:o-QAAOSwoDFcGojU:rk:2:pf:0
