My Mods and Tyre Choices :) was created by danstangoe
Hey, I have just bought a Jimny and want to make it stand out abit.
Ive done some research, and to start im going to do a 2" Body lift, Replace the brake hoses for extended versions and fit a Snorkel
Ive done countless google searches and millions of these topics pop up, but I cant find one that matches my planned mods, What size tyres can I fit that will raise my jimny and make it look abit more mean on the standard alloy rims :evil:
215/75 15's (Maybe insa turbo MT's?) have popped up but for a suspension lift, but not body. Any info would be great!
Its a 2001, Jimny Sport with the 16v in it
Thanks, Dan

Hey, welcome.
I run that size tyre, BFG all - terrains.
Why a body lift though? 2 inch suspension lift is far easier

It just seemed like the cheapest option (im on a tight budget)
Could you post a link to a shop with the kit? Thanks!

How about this for an option
Bits4vits budget lift . . . . www.bits4vits.co.uk/store/jimny/1-5-jimn...ft-kit/prod_756.html
.
A suspension lift is a much better choice than body lift

I agree with reaper and iloveics spring spacers are a good eco lift if your on a budget, and the body lift is a lot harder to fit, and yes the tyres will fit with the spring spacers kit.
