Tyres on a lifted jimny was created by Alex09gp

Hi, I'm knew to the 4x4 scene but am picking up my 51 plate jimny on the weekend and am planning on a 3" suspension lift. It has the standard jimny wheels and I was wondering with a 3" lift what size mud terrain tyres could I use?

Thanks in advance, alex

215/75/15 or 235/75/15 but with the lager of the two tyres you will need to trim the front bumper.

I agree i have 215/75/r15 on mine with a 3 inch lift, all is well, but any larger and the trimming or a body lift would help ! Im still gona trim my bumpers !
