Right, I have non standard wheels on the Jimny, and am happy with the 215rx15's fitted.

We have a second set of wheels ( alloy 3 spoke ) fitted with 205x70x15's that have seen a lot better days.

Im thinking of fitting the widest tyres I can to the rims. I assume they are 6J .. but need to confirm.

Can anyone tell me if I can fit a 235x75x15 tyre to a 6J rim ?

I used to have those 3 spokes, i believe they are 5.5", probably best not to go over a 215.

Yep, mine are Kingpins, forget what they call them but just like Diamonds, which are made by Kingpin anyway.Set of 5 x 205/16 are £175 trade inc vat so I'd imagine you could get a set for £250 retail.
