Tire Size Conversion

I have a David Bradley 2-14 plow I purchased at the junk yard. It has 6.00-16 size tires on it but they are shot. Right now I can't do much with it like it is so I'd like to put some reasonably priced tires on it so I can at least move it better. Eventually I'd like to try and plow with it as the plow is pretty well complete and ready to go except for tires. I'm thinking now that 16" & 17" tires have become common on cars and pickups I might find some used tires I could put on this thing. I'm kind of thinking something like mud grips or something that will be able to lift the plow with out the wheel just sliding. I am not opposed to using a tube in them if need be. What would be a good readily available common size tire that would possibly work for this? I know the 6.00-16 implement tire is pretty tall, and I probably don't want too short of a tire as I don't think the wheel lift plow comes out of the ground that far anyway. Thanks for your replies in advance! Good Day!
 
If you can't find good gripping tires, consider getting some old tire chains and put 0ne on the land side tire of your plow to lift without sliding the wheel.
 
Your probably going to be looking for tires in the 195 or 205 size as for he first numbers. Maybe something like say a 195/70R16 or 205?70R16 or maybe a 195/75R 16. The big thing is not getting so wide that you have problems with the tire rubbing on something. If I remember right the Oliver Plow I have has 750/16 on it so there maybe room to go bigger
