So, what is the standard tyre size? was created by Jimnyash
Been doing a lot or reading (as I think most of us do) about what tyres to change to.

Currently I've got Bridgestone Duelers 205/70 x 15.

I've read an awful lot of posts on here with people saying that their Duelers are 205/75 x 15 as standard.

What actually is the standard size? Black Circles says 205/70, but is it?

I'm thinking of changing to an AT tyre, maybe 205/75 x 15. I think 215/75 x 15 is tempting too much death wobble (although a shim kit may well be on the horizon anyway!).

The standard size on mine was 205x70. I had x75s on as well.

205 70 15 is what my Jimbo came with. I think the duellers were Suzuki's tyre of choice from new but i could be wrong.

OK.

Thanks guys.

What's your suggestions on changing?

205/75 or 215/70?

I don't really want to have to do any lifts or suspension mods. I've got a set of 32mm spacers but they're not fitted at the mo.

you could consider 195 80 15 . more all terrain and mud terrain available than in 205's and approx 1" bigger diameter , but muds will come out taller still.

standard jimny - for now
