weld billet 16x8 wheels what's the best tire size

Hello peeps...so I got some weld racing billets 16x8 with 0 offset on clist for a great price but they need tires. I have a 68 c10 swb. It is lowered 6" rear/5 1/2 front. How big of a tire can I use for the rear. I did my research but most peeps on the forum have 15". Any ideas on tire combos would be greatly appreciated! Pics will also help! thanks
