The smallest tires we carry for a 16 inch rim are sized 235/80-16. These are going to be almost a half inch wider than your current tires and about an inch larger in diameter as well.

If you replace your rims you may be able to use 215/75-17.5 sized tires, like # LHAS701, which are actually about a 1/2 an inch thinner and about an inch larger in diameter than what you have now. I've linked our selection of these for you.
