Whenever this issue comes up I often wonder why Suzuki didn't design and leave more clearance. They must know there are a lot of tyres that could be used if only they would clear but more than that, why do they have more of a a car-like clearance than other 4x4s???

Because of the short wheelbase.

I just don't buy that when the later models have even less clearance.

I found this pic and hopefully this is correct as he has no lift and BFG muds in 215/75/15.

I do have some spring spaces from my old one to put on if not.

Looks cool.

Frankly I think that size of tyre should have been the norm for a motor like this................with a 2" gap all round to boot.
