So after Wagtail I decided some more aggressive tyres were in order.
So I got event-tyres to fit some Kumho KL71 MT 215/75/15 on my standard rims.
They look great, don't seem to rub and have definitely improved clearance.

If anyone was thinking of changing here is some pics to show you how it looks.

Looks great! Perfect size to fit under the guard and a nice aggressive look

Looks good, spacers would transform it though imho. Will make for a great stance with those tyres.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

Looks much better. Any new wobbles?

If not, can you tell me who balanced them and I'll take my MTs there!!

Looking good Goatboy got my 2" spring lift, so spring spaces will be ready soon will let know.

Back to Black, Try JUST TYRES on the west wycombe rd, he balanced my M/Ts on the inside+outside of the rims had no wobbles since.

Hi All,

I know this is a old thread but hoping for some advice.

I am currently running my 02 plate jimny on 205 70 15, however would like to go up to 215 75 15 as they look so much better and more ground clearence would be good.
I have been told I have a mark 2 bumper, however I do now the difference between a mark one or mark two bumper. both jimnys pictured appear to have exactly the same bumper as mine, so will 215 75 15 fit on my standard hubs?

Any help would be great
