Hi all I’m new here and I’m looking for a bit of tyre advice, I have a 2004 Jimny and need to get a set of new tyres before I book the mot tomorrow. At the moment I have insa turbo ranger 2 205/70/r15 but I cannot buy these any more.
I did want similar tyres and was thinking of BFGoodrich A/T ko2 215/75/r15, can anyone advise if these will fit ok as I’m looking at £500 fitted so I don’t want to waste money if they are a bad choice?
My other thoughts were Goodyear wrangler AT adventure or Cooper discovery AT3 sport but I do like the look of the Goodrich the most.
(The car won’t be taken off road much which is why I don’t want full off road tyres but normal road tyres are boring looking to me!)
Thanks for any advice!

Thanks for the replies, I think I will go for the BFGs but the MOT test centre said I won't need to replace the tyres I have till the next MOT so December it is!

If you are not going off road, I would go for something suitable for road use and the occasional dirt track. Geolanders would be good but so would any of the [milder] A/T treads. No point in going for something chunky, all it will do is use more fuel, be less stable at speed on the road and wear faster.
