Need some tire opinions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey guys-

This weekend I stumbled on a free set of original style wheels. I already had the hubcaps in my garage. I am going to have them sand blasted and powder coated black.

My question is what type of tires do you guys think will work best? I have the original style 6 bolt axles and the truck gets some normal chore duty as you can see in the pics.

I am thinking I want to go with a 6.50R 16 a radial but like the originals, maybe with a white wall??... what you guys think? Anyone know of a good place besides Coker to buy them?
