        I've just replaced the OE Geolanders on my Subaru XV and it's five years old next month. Five years and 47K miles. Not a bad effort i think. They were decent tyres and i was happy with them.

        I have the Geolanders in standard Gen4 size. I wonder if they have discontinued that size?

        Hi Soeley.
According to the Yokohama website, they do not make any 195 section tyres to GO15 spec. I have emailed them for clarification.

        The tyres I'm running have the three peaks mountain snowflake symbol.
It doesn't make them winter tyres though, it just means that they met the criteria for the required grip levels on snow.
The only 4x4 tyres I can find for the jimny are the General xp2000 and the Bridgestone DM V2 (unavailable it seems).
The bridgestone has a new extra symbol that interests me suggesting they have compliance with standards for extra grip on icy conditions.
