"Then each ADC would measure an 8mA span with 8bit resolution rather than a 16mA span with 8bit resolution. Giving 16bit resolution over the 16mA span" (My emphasis)

No, it wouldn't! Do the maths, this method (if you could get it to work) only gives you 9 bits resolution.

I agree with Michael: Forget about I2C and use an ADC with some other kind of serial interface.
