    They ALWAYS do that. And they're never pleased when you show them that
    "White in" is written right on their work order (after you told the guy at
    the desk ten times ;-). Morons.

    There's no need at all to switch rim sizes. Just get a set of 33x9.5R15
    tires. They're slightly larger than 235/85/16 but not significantly so and
    they should work just as well.
