These are your only options for a 16" wheel. I have linked each Manufacturer's website so you can see what size options you have for a different sized wheel.

To go real big, 275+, you will either need to do a 15" drag wheel, or 17" or bigger diameter wheel. 16s don't offer much in the way of going with a wide tire.

Hope this helps!!
