A tire I would recommend for the M37, if you must go the radial route, is the 8.25-16 Michelen from the G-wagon. Very close to the original size, and they have a nice mud and snow tread pattern on them. They also don't have the balloonish look of the LSVW tires.
The entire fleet has had those tires replaced in the last year, so lots on the market. Toronto has been putting them up for sale on CADC a pallet at a time, still with their rims. While the first palletloads went for $1500 or so, the price has crept down to under $400 for a pallet of 5.
I have put those tires on the limbers and some other pieces around the museum.
