I wouldn't go down to 16s. It'll look daft on such a big car, and as mentioned if they're designed for vans due to the size it is VERY likely they will have a high load index and actually be harsher on ride than the 18s!
That is something I haven't considered. I think ill run these tyres to the end of their life and just try and buy something same size but softer instead of trying to fix something that isn't really broke.. thanks!
