I reckon you should get away with 235/85R16.

Have a look at

click on "tech", then "tires & wheels". There's quite a useful summary there of what will fit what.

I reckon Neil Brownlee will be along shortly to disagree. Think you'll be OK at the front, but will need some minor cuts to the rear arches IF you intend to use the full travel (and there's little point if you don't).
