Smile 1975 31ft Sovereign... 15" or 16" ... Need before I take her home

Hi all,
I just purchased her, and am excited beyond words, in getting her home. She had been sitting for over 12 years, and I really don't want to risk the 20 mile freeway drive, on those old tires. Any other related suggestions? All will be appreciated, as I am brand new to this fun adventure.

It originally came from Airstream with 15". If it has been sitting I would almost bet that it still has the original wheels. Since you are probably going to need new axles, wheels, brakes and tires just do what ever you need to get it home. If only 20 miles some used Light Truck tires would work if you need to actually change the tires.
