My situation is a little different because I have 14" rally IIs. I plan to get the wheels themselves checked out before I buy tires. If the wheels balance and check out OK, I'll buy tires. If not, I will be looking for 15" wheels or maybe larger to have more tire options.

That sounds like a good approach. Old steel wheels are often bent. They can be bent from curbing or deep pot holes and really show no damage until checked on a balancer.
