Answer
Bill,

I'm not sure why you would want to know ALL the sizes - and there are too many to list - but I suspect you want to find something to fit your truck.

Your vehicle has a sticker on it - commonly called the placard - that will tell you what the original tire size was and the proper inflation pressure for that size.  If I remember correctly for a Ford truck, it's on the driver's doorpost.

I'm sure there is someone who has that tire size available as there were a lot of these trucks made, but the 16.5 sizes are rapidly disappearing.  If you are planning to keep this vehicle for a while, you may want to convert to 16".
