1955 Which Front fender

i have a 1955 ford f250. i am trying to replace a bad driver front fender. i believe there are 2 sizes of fender based on original tire size. truck does not have original tires or rims. how can i determine which fender to buy to replace it?
Thanks

Good info Charlie, but the way it's drawn I'm having a little trouble determining just what is being measured, and I have been trained in cad.

I know Charlie didn't draw it, I thanked him for posting it, just stating my observation and question.
Please tell me then, where are the 30", 36", 14.75, 14", 13.75", 13" measurements being taken so I can put it in my notes.

The lower dimensions seem to be straightforward enough...the upper numbers are the dimensions from the wheel opening to the front and rear edges of the fender. Given that the OP was satisfied that the chart answered his question I will let it go at that. The chart came from the Midfifty webpage where they advertise their fenders. Sometimes CAD drawings do not translate well to jpgs or other files formats.

C = F100 / D = F250 / Y = F350 / T = F500 / TH = F600.
