The above link will let you compare tire sizes easily, even for flotation tire sizes.

I don't know about the load rating on these "new" tires, but since they are nearly 2" shorter than what you have now - I would be concerned and check it out. Personally, I would not go that direction. But, hope the calculator helps some.

Others will chime in I am certain with more, and better info to assist you.
