Wheels/Tires are still giving me heartburn. Ugh. No luck finding 16x7 or 16x8 6-lug steelies. WV has 6-lug OE-style 15x8s for $97 each. Shipping is probably gonna kill me, and I can’t get an E rated tire. Still, 15x8s with 32x11.50-15 BFG T/As would be a pretty big improvement. Big money, though. I could put 235/75R15 MUSA Goodyear Wrangler Trailrunners on these rims for ~$450 installed....

I
think I remember that some time after my disaster with the junkyard GMT400 wheels, that I found an online source for 16" 6-hole wheels to fit the solid axle pickups. But they were $100++ each so it would have been $600 to $800 just for a set of five, plus the new tires. By that time I had already bought four 15x8 steel rally wheels from a ranch junkyard for $200, and I bought a new set of 235/75's for those. That guy actually suggested that I just get a couple of 3/4 ton axles and swap them instead but I wasn't quite that ambitious. Those projects always just grow and grow and grow ...
You will probably do fine with a new set of LT235/75R15(C) tires. You might think about spending a little more for a road hazard warranty so that if you ruin a tire or have a non-repairable flat, then they give you four brand new tires
