LT tires for a 5" wide 16" diameter wheel is going to be tough to find in specs.. but as long as there is enough sidewall to get the right amount of contact on the ground I'd run them..
the challenge is finding a tire shop that actually understands what they're doing outside of a template in their computer..

It's a 6" wheel (5" @ the bead). My dually has a 16x6" front wheel. The 215's come on/are spec'd for 16" x 6" dually wheels. My '99 had/has 16x6" fronts. The OE spec tire is a 245/75-16. I have 215's on it.
If the tire shop is Discount Tire (or the like)..... Go somewhere else.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
