I have just picked up a sj on ebay. it has 1.9 vw turbo diesel engine and it is a little under geared so I would like to fit some 16" rim's on it. What standard 16" rims fit it and who also does aftermarket steel rims to fit?

Under geared is GOOD :)

What size tyres has it got at the moment?

There's no need to switch from 15" to 16", there are lot of 15" tyres size options :)

Yes! there are lots of tyres at 15", but at some time I'll need to uprate the axils, as I know there is far to much lbs/foot going through those cv joint at the moment so I don't want to buy tyre twice. Also I can get a narrow/ taller tyre by going to 16" and you need that toget to the hard stuff under the glorious mud.
