Good memory Jack. The Kaimans in 205/70/15 are the same size as my current 215/75/15.

Surprisingly good even in the wet. I have always used this tyre on all my 4x4's over the years and never found anything better off road. The down side is they sound like a old prop plane taking off over 30 mph.

Had them on my Lada Niva before I fitted the Kaimans. Good off road but in time the flint around here cut them and I had to super glue the blocks down for the MOT.

i don't want to buy twice the 215/80 around 30" is what i'd like
and 750<or> 32" will need trimming i'm sure

add: 30/9.5/15 29"
