The potenza's are wee bit better than the stock tires :laugh:
Or maybe something from the ventus series from hankook.
I am an absolute fan of that tire brand.

Lambert,

I've not personally used Nokians on any car ever, but I can tell you that plenty of people in the SAAB world, in my old SAAB forums, swore by them and still do. (PLENTY OF INFO HERE) - for them it was the No.1 choice.
However how well they suit the Jimny if available in the right size would be subject to trial and error.


IF IT AINT BROKE, KEEP FIXING IT UNTIL IT IS

In the more grownup area's of defender land the nokian full winter had a messianic following hence thinking about them when I found a suitable size for Ermintrude.

I tend to look on the tyrereviews.co.uk website for stuff like this. They have two entries for the Nokian WeatherProof, including links to group tests they've been included in.
