Here is an alternative.
I'm on a Quebec HMV group on Face Book and there is a current post offering 9.00 R16 XL and 9.00 R16 XZL unmounted Michelin tires. I think they are LSVW tires. Rob identified the bolt pattern as an issue, but it you could get beyond that, there are any number of LS parts, wheels, pieces etc in circulation. The group is called, Vehicules Militaires du Quebec. I travel to Quebec often enough that if you get a deal on something, I can get it to Ottawa. The usual overland voyageur canoe, portage and pack mule routes could get items upriver to Nippissing.

If I recall the bolt pattern on trailers we had at work was eight studs on 6 1/2 bolt circle. This was the same as our 3/4 ton trucks until the trucks went to metric bolt pattern in the 2000’s. The only problem using truck wheels was the offset. On some trailers the tires would rub on the inside. Your trailer should be okay as the 16.5 wheels were quite wide. The 16” rims should fit with no problem.

Personally, I would stay away from the ex-LSVW Michelin Radials. They are a bit baloonish as well as usually needing a lot of weight to balance. Any decent 235-75R16 tire would be a lot better.
