I am currently restoring a 1970 Ford F 250 and am trying to find tires similar to the original tires. My guess is the original tires were made by Firestone, however they do no appear to manufacture anything like the original tires. Does anyone make anything similar to the original tires?

I know '65 F-250s had 16-inch split-rims. I'm too lazy, well actually my research library is in Placentia, and I don't remember if your '70 F-250 came with split-rims, or "widow-makers" as we used to call them. Either way, it doesn't matter, I'd start with Coker tire in Chattanoogie or how ever the hell you spell it in TN. Firestone was the OE tire on a Furd  back then.
