    am I stupid? tire size help.

    ok so I am running on 235/17 16 Michelin tires and they are getting worn. I looked at the max tire size but I don't understand it. I also tried googling some stuff but I still don't know. What is the max tire size I can have? I have a 1996 Ford Explorer Sport with no lift. Thanks.

    Got a check engine light, only had it a day.
