A 235/85x16 is about 31" - 32". 235mm is approx 9.5" so 31x9.5x15 in American sizings, although I think 31x10.5x15 is more common.

Hi, The 31x10.5R15 are half an inch shorter than the 750x16 but are about an inch wider however. I run those with the Tracker 2 All Terrain Retread 110S in the summer and 750R16 SATS in winter and they all work really well, Prob put grizzly's on the 15 though soon.
