It's an 1985 F250 6.9L I bought it new.
Need new tires.
I need new tires 235/85R/16. I am going to try and find some takeoffs at a dealer or rim shop. Does anyone know which other rims with tires will fit? (ie what other model/year trucks/vans) I am also looking at the Michelin XPS rib but they ar very expensive and I am not sure that I am going to keep the truck long enough to justify the over 200.00 price. Also anybody bought takeoffs before and what do they usually cost?

You're going to be hard pressed to find that size in takeoffs, it is not used in any new OEM truck application that I know of. The common size now is 265/75R16. The 265's are really too wide for your stock 6" rims.
The only takeoff rims that will fit your truck correctly are E250 / E350 wheels. F-series are metric and hub piloted.
