Both look to be standard height Jims... so can't be much bigger than 215 75's

Although i thought 215 75's rubbed without a slight lift :blink:

I'd love to do an expedition trip to Iceland but fancy a Jimny is a little too small to do so in really. Is imagine a 110 is the motor to take really. Nonetheless I'd still like to go in a Jimny, just think I might be a bit mad to expect it to be big enough!

With just 2 of you i reckon you'd have more than enough space for all you need.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

You haven't seen what we take on a weekend away to an offroad site!

You could possibly be right if we planned stops at hotels right and had a roof tent and I didn't go mad on the spares and tools I carry - I am one of the pack for every conceivable eventuallity brigade - which is not the way to be on an expedition I know but that's the way I am!

Mmmm - I wonder if there could be a Big Jimny Members trip to see the Northern Lights on the horizon (pardon the pun). I would love to build a Jimny just for that trip - Oh god - I'm off again - thinking about building another bloody Jimny.... I best log off before I start ordering a whole Jimny off ebay and then the entire catalogue from the ORA website...

you know the saying" if you want to go on an expedition go in a land rover but if you want to get back go In a Toyota"
