I have a pair of 6.00X16 tractor fronts on my #8, and it does work quite well, but I can't get quite enough adjustment from the levers to make that first, opening pass be the same depth on both bottoms. A 7.50X16 tire on the land side would provide more adjustment.
I have a 7.70x15 or 8.70x 15 (don't remember) (30 yr old sow/mud tire)on the land wheel and a 6.00x16 tractor tire on the furrow wheel. My plow works fine plowing the crown. Perhaps your lift rod is the wrong length? I found a fabricated longer rod on a plow of mine. Also, there are two holes for attaching the quadrant to the furrow axle arm (one for steel, one for rubber tires).
Redblood, everyone is correct so far. Whatever fits. I like to see at least a vintage looking tire, not a modern 16" car radial.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
