Hi,

I'm fairly new here :D I know its been going on for ages but i coulndt find any appropriate pictures and I would like some advice too.

I just got my 2" lift kift from jimnybits and I was looking into buying a set of BFG's KM2 Mud Terrains after the holidays. Im stuck between 215/75/R15 or 235/75/R15. My jimny is a Mk1 with the 1.3L petrol G13BB (SOHC) engine. wouldnt wanna cripple it too much as I use it as a daily and travel quite alot. What do you suggest and any pictures of 2" lift with the different tyre sizes. would appreciate.

Hmmm I just wrote a massive reply but it didn't bloody well save!

In short, same lift kit as mine (two inch) and I run BFG 215/75/15 km2s and love it! Highly recommend the jimnybits offset steels too

Oh and I bought castor correction bushes but sold them on as once the kit was fitted the car felt fine without them so saves some money!

I would stick with 215s tyre wise as I heard the 235s are a bit much for an otherwise standard car

I have 225 75 15 black star mud max which are great in deep mud they do catch very slightly only done it twice under extreme flexing at the quarry engine seams ok just with them on have to change gear sooner on hills but these are a heavy tyre compared to my 195 80 15 at tyres hope this is of some use to you

cheers Mike.
