just found my driver,s side front and rear tyres have been
slashed by some mindless bastard. I ,ve got two more to replace
them but i need to know if they,re compatable the ones that have
been slashed are deestone 7.50 16 112L 8P.R. extra traction ,and
the ones to replace them are firestone 205 r16 reinforced 104S.
want to know if ican have a pair on the front and a pair on the
back if so which is the best way round.

no,
they are different sizes
205's have a simillar rolling diameter as a 600, so cant be run
with 750's

No.
Not only are they quite significantly different sizes, the 205s
are radials and the 7.50s are crossplies - mixing them is a
really bad idea. Fitted in the wrong manner, a mix of crossplies
and radials is illegal; but even done the "right" way with
radials on the driving axle (for a Series truck the rear), it
makes for horrible/dangerous handling.
