Looking to switch tires

I am looking to get some new tires for my 77 f100, as of right now it has 31x11.50 r15lt m+s , but I am looking for something more of a street tire than the offroad like the ones i have are, I was told that off road tires are in inches where as the other are metric, so my question is what kind of tires will replace the ones I have. heres a picture

Whether the tire is offroad or street is mostly determined by the tread and plies, and not how the tire is numbered. You could get P265/75R15, but comparatively, that's much rarer than 30x10.50R15 (the closest size) and larger R15 metric sizes are even more rare than that.
