Did you trace it by hand, or by using 'trace bitmap'?
Tracing by hand is tedious, but it's the best way for
file-size by far. Created two layers, put your GIFs in
the bottom layer and lock that layer. You can trace
on the top layer and delete the bottom layer when
finished.

You could also try adobe streamline, but I don't think
it will even get you results comparable to 'trace bitmap'.
