Not sure about size as I don't have a Jimny but for tyre stores I just bought Coopers from Taleb Tyres, which is linked to Tempe Tyres and St George Tyres. They're really cheap and service was good. Doing a Google search has founds lots of positive reviews. BTW there's no need to shout - caps lock off. |

You may get away with 215/75 without a lift, I am not sure as I raised mine first. So without a lift possibly the stock size or 215/75. Any more than this and you are going to need to change the gearing on the Jimny which is expensive. With the 215/75 you are a bit limited in brands. You also need to decide if you want a mud terrain or an all terrain. The choice might depend upon how much bitumen driving you do. The BF Goodrich tyres seem to be a popular choise but I have the Hankook Dynapro MT's and are very happy with these. Good luck with the Jimny. Plenty of information on this site. |

northernbeaches wrote: STFU This site isn't like most others, and a little respect (not even a lot) goes along way. You won't get very far here without it. Not only that there is a large of very experienced, helpful members. Shoot, in just a few posts you have Bucket referring you to a shop, he even told you to use his name to help get you better service. Without respect you won't get that kind of help, or any here. You may not need the help now, but when you do need the help or advice, I can guarantee that little bit of respect will be worth it. |
