Yes 100km on the clocks is actually 107.

This guy fitted these tyres to a 2014 model without issues:

thank you Busta! i also rarely found 207 70 15 in MT tire, its the one in the picture, do you this its better to stay 205 70 15 mud tire or to definitely go with the 215 75 15 mud tire, i like the idea of getting better ground clearence, but also like the 205 70, but if the diference its so small i will go with the 215 75

All depends on the tire type. My mud tires are 205 70 15 and only just fit.
Thats after doing a 2" suspension lift. :blink:

If the tyres you are looking at are re-moulds then stick with 205/70s as remoulds can be a lot bigger than the advertised size. For 'proper' tyres like BFGoodrich, Maxxis, Kumho etc then a 215/75 shouldn't be a problem.

Just had in my head that it was 7%, turns out it's 5.3% according to this site: tiresize.com/comparison/
