How did its not pertain to you specific wheel change? It lists the correct size tire for a 16 inch wheel.

Also for future reference enter your current tire rim combo then play with what you want to do useing this to find other tire sizes that will work for ya.

On the Org, common sense does not appear to be that common.

When dealing with stock rims it doesn't matter what one you are using as long as you use the guide and base your original tire for that rim off the stock size. So if you put in your stock 14 tire size, 15 inch tire size, or 16 inch tire size it will all be pretty much the same overall size. With that said the computer is calibrated for the diameter of the stock tire sizes listed in the guide. With a 16 just start with the size listed and play around with the sidewall/width till you get one that closely matches the stock tire size.
