Bought some steelies... was created by InverChuck

from flea bay, advertised as 15", turns out to be 16 x 6.5... :unsure:

Can I still use these on my 08 Jimny without modding anything? If so what size tyres would I need?

Tyre code Diameter Circumference Difference

205/60 R16 652 mm 2048 mm -2.34 %
215/60 R16 664 mm 2086 mm -0.54 %

Thanks for the reply, I have just realised I was being dense and had measured the wheels literally to include the lip of the rim..... :blush:

So I guess they are 15 x 6.5
