Thanks. I found this conversion chart helpful to determine wheel diameter:
http://www.1010tires.com/tiresizecalculator.asp and then picked a size close in diameter.

Some guys have used LT215/85R16. I Ended up buying LT225/75R-16's. You can buy a replica radial of the Bias ply tires with a white wall from Coker, but be ready to bend over for them cause they are pricey. Thats the reason I went with a standard BW truck radial.

Good luck. And post up some pics when you get something!
