Hi Guys,

Looking at a 2nd set of 16" Genuine Suzuki Rims for my 08 Grand Vitara Wagon, 5 door.

Thinking of keeping the 2nd set in the shed for when i wanna take it off road, beach mainly. Any suggestions for what tyre and what is the largest size i could go.

I found that with the standard tyres that my GV gets bogged or bottoms out easily. Looking at tyres and then later if needed a lift kit.

Any suggestions would be great for tyres and lift kit.

Ive fitted 225/75 R16 to our 08GV. The fit and dont scrub on anything and actuall correct the speedo to within 2kms @ 100km/h.

Ive been told you can fit upto a 245/75R16 without having to cut anything.

they are close to a 31in.

the 245/70 is only 5mm bigger than a 225/75. as for lifts i have the inonman kit in ours and since they replaced the faulty front struts its kickass.
