Managed to find a pic of the Jimny side on, and actually they look quite narrow. I don't know what width that standard wheel is, and there's only so far you can go with tyres on wheel widths - a 6" wheel width will only allow you to go up to 205mm tyres. For a 215 you need to go to 6.5". So maybe I should keep my options open.

So I assume no one has a webpage showing Jimny wheel options, then. Thanks for the Mach 5 idea, though do you have a link as to who sells them? Google didn't bring up anything for me.

I have 215's on 5.5J and it fits nice. Too wide and you will balloon the tire and loose height.

[quote="Barry" post=185875 a 6" wheel width will only allow you to go up to 205mm tyres. For a 215 you need to go to 6.5". .[/quote]

It seems that 215 is regularly fitted on a 6" rim. We are not talking sports car handling here where a firmer based tyre would be better.

Do it right - use Hammerite
When the blue light is flashing I am kidding.

If you want genuine Mach 5s, you need to get hold of the fellow driving this.

It's been fettled just a tad.

Well we thought the genuine Suzuki wheels would be expensive.

£432

And the really bad news, thats EACH!

However that is the price for a single wheel and my contact suggests that is the "Insurance" price for replacement.

He is looking at a "bundle" price for a set.
