Jimny tyre size was created by Garuuu
Hey guys ive been driving myself crazy trying to decide what tyre size to put on my jimny.
I now have the stock suspension and want tyres that would fit in the arches with slight cutting if necessary. Ive aeen that 215/75/15's will definitely fit but they look a bit too small so i was wondering if 225/75/15's will fit also would these affect the power a lot more compared to the others? (i do not want to change the gearing)

215 are about the best compromise for size against gearing on an otherwise standard Jimny. Bigger is possible but it starts to get slow and has rubbing issues without a lift.

I agree with 11/60, 215/75/15 are the best option.
