Another page gives that same tire sizes.

It also shows that the platform height is ~2" lower on the standard tires (15") vs the optional (17") tires.

The rim difference accounts for 1" of height delta, so one could infer that the sidewall of the 16" wheels should be 6.5.

6.5-15 is a standard size from that vintage.
