If you looked at my other pics you would see 10mm clearance at 1/4 lock, that's with me bending the bottom brackets as far as they would go, I did state they wouldn't fit on offset wheels with 215's.... well maybe 3-+mm clearance. Eek not for me.

Thanks, they are -30 from jimny bits, 48 quid each iirc, they are 7 inch wide too so that equates to the rim sticking out about 48 mm. As you get an extra 18mm rim width either side of the standard 5.5 inch rim.

Drives great too, I did have them balanced on the studs with the adapter, the tyre centres don't like putting it on there machine but with all the stories of bigger tyres and rims adding to death wobble it's well worth causing them the inconvenience IMO. Rides as smooth as standard.

I am informing the public that I have finished all my additions to the Wiki article about tyre sizes, models and best usage practices.

The article is located here:
www.bigjimny.com/mediawiki/index.php/Tyr...age_-_best_practices

I consider that article 98% finished.

Part of the content of that article (the last three chapters) is replicated in another wiki article about improving and modifying Jimny for mixed on-road and off-road use: www.bigjimny.com/mediawiki/index.php/Imp..._and_all_terrain_use

By the way, that article is also 98% finished as far as I am concerned.

Well it ain't over until it's over!

After sleeping it over last night, I had some more ideas and some refinements to add. So now those should finally be (almost) finished.
