New wheels and tyres have just arrived!
JimnyBits had them on special offer, and I just couldn't resist, partly as it was Bits4Vits' year-end, and I always get myself a little treat at financial year-end... now into it's TENTH year! :woohoo:
That's better!
Hmmm, they don't look as wide as I'd feared though... they are meant to be 275s but the comparison there is to my existing 235s?
9" ? (un-inflated)
31"s though... so 31" x 9" will be ideal... especially on offset wheels, so get rid of the wheel spacers too...
"275/70/R16"
Will get them mounted and fitted in due course... will need some arch cutting!

Ummm... I bought some other bits too :blush: :dry:
Errr... a winch and "behind the bumper" mounting plate, for my....
NGV!
Might take a while to come though... from Israel! via West Coast Offroad
Will blog it, in the Vitara section, when it does come...
Thought it might come in handy if we have a hard winter
That, and I can't help fiddling with my Zooks! LOL

Busy week 
... but just popped the wheels and tyres round to the local tyre bay (all of 200 yards away!) to have them combined, and balanced... will go back tomorrow and pick them up and take some photos - of course!
