Best wheel size suspension and tyres for smallholding quadbike replacement Jimny
I have used standard size Insa Dakar and I’m at present using Insa Sahara both on and off road. A little noisy on road and very good off road, cheap reliable and not had a problem. If you do get them fitted then make sure they give the rims a good clean and buff.

OK, couldn't resist. Got 215/75/15 Insa Saharas on Jimny as just couldn't manage with existing all seasons . This vehicle hasn't seen a road in months and we are trying to establish limited tracks on site Won't rouble the grass we don't want it to. We have an old Xtrail for road and forest trails, basically 10 miles to supermarket and back as well as back up for the Jimny. On this we put the much tamer yet very impressive Insa Rangers and they have been awsome for the job (80/20s)
. Sadly I can't tell you how well the Saharas have done as front hubs have failed and now on second set of duffers from retailers. To make matters worse tried to dismantle old ones to put a 10mm plate in to lock on , but made a mess of dismantling one unit so the Jimny's laid up for now. Still smiling, but can't wait to test the hills.
If you have a set of the original vacuum hubs to hand they are very easy to lock with this method. Any 20mm screw through the centre of the hub will do the same job.
