One other thing to think about.  I recently replaced the P235-75-15
passenger car tires on my 1998 Chevy pickup with 10.00-15 LT truck tires and
my gas mileage dropped considerably.  I think these heavy duty tires are
simply "too stiff" and it takes more HP to move them down the road.  A
Corvair Greenbrier won't haul enough weight to ever need truck tires so
stick with the passenger car tires and get better fuel economy and smoother
ride.
