well your going to be forced more or less to buy wheels that fit your particular Tiger. You don't say what brand of product it is. I for one can tell you that tamiya wheels don't fit on HL etc, etc, etc.
what kind of Tiger you want would be the second question, personally I like the mid to late Tigers but that is just me.
willing to bet that you bought a heng long though in which case the late tiger is easier to model.

It really depends on what you want it to look like, early tigers have the wheels with a black rubber tyre round the outside, late tigers have the all metal wheels and don't have the outer row of wheels, mid tigers can have either sets of wheels so you can really decide to go which ever way you want, as you have brought an existing tank you need to compare it to early, mid and late models to see which matches your model.
