Jimny tyres
« on: October 25, 2007, 07:19:03 »
Finally managed to persuade SWMBO to put some a/t's on the Jimny but she wont change to any thing other than the standard 205/70/15 so it doesn't throught the speedo out in the slightest (typical!).  BFG don't go that small - 215/70/15 is theire nearest size wise but she's not having any of it.

Are the colway a/t's fairly durable on the road? I've had a look and can get them at a v reasonable price and wondererd if anyone else had run them on a jim?
R reg 3.9 Discovery on LPG - pretty standard at mo.

Colways are great off road, and AT's are Ok on road. As for durability, don't expect road tyre milage, but they are OK

I have colway at's on mine ... they dont wear that well but then they are cheap as chips and i dont really have a bad word to say about them! think i payed about £135 for a set of 4. One thing to note is colway are having some trouble and have gone into administration so you might find it hard to get some.
