Question Best wheels & Tires...

I would like to buy some new wheels for my 1961 Bambi. I would like to have some "baby moon" type hubcaps if they are available anywhere? What wheel do you recommend? I have a new Henschen Dura Torque axle that is a 5 lug on 5.5" spacing. I would like to put as serious "off road" tire as possible on my little trailer. I live at nearly 10,000 feet above sea level in the Colorado Rockies and plan on taking her to the top of some serious mountains. Don't worry, I won't hurt her! Are there any tires that might be a bit better for a worn out dirt road? Woudl it be to my benefit to get tires rated for a heavier load, so they can with stand the torture of the load bouncing around on them? Are there any tires that have a heavier sidewall?

Thanks in advance!
