(315*0.65*2)/25.4+16

= 32.12"

315/70/R16 would be the one (33.36")

well theres a nominal size and then the actual size.

most tyres are over size and some brands are over by more than an inch.

yes michellon make a 325/85/16. it is expensive and a very heavey tyre. we use them on aslav's (a small tank). they re awesome in the mud and rocks but only have a single ply side wall. bag well when aired down but they are pricey.
