As for clearance issues with 235/60X16. Don't know as I have never fitted this size to any Falcon. You might be able to get some friendly tyre shop to fit a 2nd handy up, just for clearance purposes. This size was very common on Rav 4's.
I thought the same a while back about the 15" rims, but mine and my brothers series 2 utes have the sticker which shows 15" rims.

I had thought of zipping down to a tyre place about the 235's.
