It looks like there are grades of Tyvek - similar to masks? - what's the min level you'd recommend?

For preventing the radioactive fallout from touching you and remaining there any level is appropriate since the fallout is in the form of dust or rain which can't pass through these suits.

Obviously radiation will pass through it, for protection against that you need lead based suits.
