LT tires

Gentlemen, If I purchase a '65 econoline pickup this weekend It will be my daily driver. Among other things I will want to tow my trailer with it, and drive it in the snow. From past experience passenger car tires are NG for towing a heavy load so I'm going to need light truck tires, also I want a good tread in the rear for the snow. I was hoping someone could give me a largest size recomendation for wheel and tires both 14" and 15".

thanx Eric

I’ve got 205/70R15’s on mine. It’s lowered 2” and nothing bigger will fit the front for sure.
