Have a read through this thread

www.bigjimny.com/index.php/forum/7-jimny...1978-tyre-size#93064

Might be something helpfull there. I stuck with standard size because I didnt want to mess with gearing etc
Also I read somewhere that if you put tyres 3% (I think it is) larger than stock it can void the warranty so you might just want to ask your dealer about that.

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???

Just means more trimming when the time comes :laugh:

In reality though it should come with a tyre size like 215 75 because they market it as an offroad vehicle.

And with more anchor points! The new Jimnys have a hoop welded to the chassis at the front i'll try to get a picture of it, it looks pretty sturdy so would love to know what it holds up like.

Heres the 'Recovery point'

Not to sure how strong it is but guess theres only one way to find out

In my eyes its to long and will just bend, but hopefully will find out soon enough when I get stuck!
