The best choice for the OEM 16x7 wheels would be a 285/75-16 tire. This works out to be a 33x11.50-16 tire. You could also run a 305/70-16 tire which is a 33x12.50-16, but it is a little wide for the OEM wheels. If you plan on wider aftermarket wheels in the near future this probably isn't a big deal.
