I've fitted 30" malatesta kaiman and what a diferrence it makes and the jimny looks now
Did some trimming on the arches and bumpers and that was all, but will have to flex the suspension to see if the tires will rub anywhere ....
Well done
Wish you many, many nice adventures with new tyres!

Thank you!
Yes you can get gears from Redacted that will give you reduction of 25%, but I heard bad things about this before. you will also need to change the T-Case chain another 300£ ish ... and some people complained about braking something, cant remember what ...

Did you measure the weight of tyres without rims,before you fix them?
It is interesting to know how much they weight?

What kind of rims you have? How much is your offset?
Are you using some wheel spacers as well?
Thanks for sharing.
