Biggest wheels and tires was created by Stock682

Hi everyone, not an expert so bare with me on the basic question.

Just got my 2011 Jimny a month back. Already finished doing the service by myself for the first time and replacing all fluids and oils.

Anyways, I just had my car lifted with OME suspension (wasn't allowed to do it myself by law). I believe 50mm. So now what are the biggest rim size and tire that I can fit on my new car?

Thanks

Going above 215/75x15 starts to cause problems with gearing, some fit 235's with no alteration but I have seen many with clutch, CV, diff problems...

Yes, 215.75.15 is your best bet or you'll need to reduce the gearing with a rocklobster transfer box, which is expensive!
