Look for LT 215 75 R16 usually they are only available in 8 0r sometimes 10 ply, possibly a LT 225 75 R 16 They should be bigger but they are @ the smallest of the current metric sized light-truck tires.

There are a few "passenger sizes that might work. One problem is the passsenger-tire rim "lip" is different than the flange on the "light-truck" rim you are using. I believe that is true for the LT tires I mentioned. So they may fit on the rim but they may not "seat" to the rim properly.

There are a few other sources out there for "older" tires other than Miller. He has a good business in the "older" sizes though. You have to ask people to look for you...some front-counter folks will say "no, not available anymore" just so they don"t have to look-up anything.

Have fun!!
