Winter/swamper-look wheels and tyres

I have a 2021 T6.1 Coast with the standard 215/65/R16 wheels and tyres. I have absolutely no capacity for increasing the overall height, based on where I keep the van.

Is there a wheel/tyre combo in the "swamper-lite" style that doesn't increase the overall height? For example I have looked at the black rhino 17"s with Falkens in 215/65/R17 but it seems these could raise the van by an inch or more.
 
Just search for a tyre size calculator online. Punch in the numbers and as long as your choice is equal to or smaller outside diameter than what you have currently, you’re good to go.

I think you’re looking for a unicorn. Given you want to increase rim diameter then you’ll need a lower profile tyre, so not exactly the big old butch swampy look.
 
You are probably right

The General Tire Grabber AT3 comes in the standard 235 /17 size. I have these on Black Rhinos. If you are mainly after the ‘look’ be aware that there are much better option for grip in typical UK winter scenarios. Winter road grip will suffer with any of these off-road style tyres.
