OK, so finally I purchased some wheels. They are 16x6. I am looking for a tall skinny radial. Like 215/85 R16.... I am going from a 7.00 (or 7.50??) x 15 bias tires on org split rims. I am hoping I notice a difference.

My current tire diameter is 29 inches so would not mind a 30 inch tire as I can gain some speed to help with the 4:56 gears.

I would like to use a tire made in USA if I can. Cooper makes a SRM II that is supposed to be pretty good.

Cooper SRM II

Any suggestions would be helpful. I don't have deep pockets.. I don't drive off road and mostly around town. We don't get a lot of snow here.. (along the oregon coast)

Thanks.
