1997 vitara 2.0 v6 tyre / wheel sizes was created by robs5230
sorry this is not jimny related but i know some of you have run and do run vitaras.
my 5 dr v6 is fitted with some limp looking all terrains in a 215 65 16.
can anyone advise my options for a bigger tyre either on 16 or 15 rims that will fit without any lift on the vehicle.
looking to get some mud terrains and i'm struggling for choice on the standard size.
many thanks

Vitara or Grand Vitara ?
Thats 27inch you have now
you should be OK going up to 225 70 16 = 28.4 inch so just over a inch
remould and Mud tend to come up larger i had some 31 inch insa
and they where more like a 32inch
you will have more choice if you pick up some 15inch rims
so sadly its not that simple
what tyres are you thinking of ??

yeah i know , i had insa turbo dakar's on the jimny . absolutley awesome but any muds will do . through the winter it'll only get used twice a week for laning and for any snow.
chunky a/t's would do but they'd have to be good.
my preference would be 195 80 15 . they'd work out about the same size.
