Hi Paul, the '85' refers to the aspect ratio of the tyre. So its height is 85% of the 235mm width, so 235/85-16 will be 200mm from rim edge to tyre outer edge. That makes about 405mm (32") total tyre diameter and 235mm wide. Worth measuring mine to check!

I think you may still have to trim the wheel arches for them to clear, I have a Makita sheet metal nibbler, if you want to. We could also stick one of my 235s/wheel on yours to see if they clear, then drive up and down the bank at my place to check clearance/articulation.
