Orange Crate, just trying to replicate the look of the original 7.5 x 16 Bias ply tires. Leaning heavily towards the Firestone Destination MT/2 - https://www.firestonecompleteautocar...17041217781899
There's so many choices in all price ranges in that size. I think at least the Firestone is an american brand(no idea where tires are made) and the MT/2 is supposed to be a great tire.

Here's another choice, but I'm no sure you can even buy them currently - Michelin XZL
255/100R16

Tom, Short 3/4. I'll check out the rivet situation. Thanks for the tip!
