Those will work but the ideal tire would be the 225 75 14 which I believe are out of production unless you want to pay megabucks for reproductions. The next choice would be 215 75 14 if they are produced.

Any thought to going up to 15's. Got a set of 4 15" for Christmas now looking for just the right rim. Want to stay close to original but not affraid to put a little flare in the old gal. Went with 15's due to high costs and lack of availability of 14
