235/75x15 tyres
Littledan:
wow looking good, they are what im getting for mine :D
V8MoneyPit:
Sowden's were the cheapest I found, but got a wheel/tyre package deal from a guy on eBay (Stuart at 'geared to go').
fudge:
What size did you opt for in the end??
Got my Zuke today :lol:
Didn't bother with the other one, there was no fuel cap, the passenger window mech was knackered, the guy's son said he wasn't so sure the gearbox or transfer box were any good, and appart from 2 headlamps and a towbar there was nothing worth having! he did let me nick the drivers door for the window mech on mine..... but I couldnt crack 2 of the bolts on the tow bar, they'd need heat for a chisel... I had neither!
I ve been quoted £ 46 + VAT Fitted, Valves and balanced? for 215 - 75 x 15 Macho's at Cambridge Performance Tyres..... I was just going to do a 2" shackle lift... but looking at your tyres I am concerned about them catching..... what do you think?
V8MoneyPit:
I would like to think you will be OK with the 215/75's. They are still bigger than the standard 205/70 of course. I haven't tried mine one yet. I was going to wait till the suspension arrived. Been told the 235/75's might just catch the bumper bracket. Anyway, we shall see.
Chances of them being able to balance them is pretty slim, but you'll only be doing 50mph flat out anyway! Bear in mind, they are directional, so whichever way you fit the spare you can be sure it will be the wrong way for your first puncture!!

Ih Have a New, Never used Michelin with quite an agressive patten on it for the spare.....
I thought 195 r 15 were the standard size...... all 5 of my tyres are 195r15, but sayingt that I have Vitara rims! maybe i'll stick with 195/80 r 15's then.....
Almost sorted the "flat spot" today...... I removed what look like the ORIGINAL spark plugs and fitted some new V grooved baby's and sprayed a can of carb cleaner through the carb...... its almost gone... she has what looks like a new dizzy cap so I'll get some leads tomorrow and chuck them at it....
She looks quite solid, o/s/f wing at the bottom front corner has gone, o/s/r wing behind fuel fill allows some ventilatyion too but underneath is good!
I have problems with my lights, I "sometimes" get DIP, but never Main Beam...... I'll strip back the plastic and check the switch at that end, theres an ebay seller asking £20 for one!
I've painted the lower part silver all round, and removed the Nudge Bar.... good job too..... If someone had used it to pull me out of somewhere boggy at the end of the month ther bar and zuke would have parted company. 3 bolts sheared with very little presure.... all four are now new.
I'll need an exhaust soon, but its fine for now, had real fun today, the new zuke is very addictive!
