matty* Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Ive had the tyres on my little jimny a good while now and one has finally let me down and the other three not looking so good anymore but im looking for mud tyres now as most of my time is spent down the farm being a part time keeper. The size im after is 195 15 80 ive managed to find remould mud tyres at just over £50 each so just wondering if Any body new any other places to look. Thanks Matty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
four-wheel-drive Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Its always worth phoning tyre places in your area as if you have to buy them and then get them fitted a bargain can soon change to a loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casts_by_fly Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 I'm running Insa Turbo ranger remolds (over 2 years now and nearly 10k miles) and have been happy with them on the cherokee. They are a little loud and supposedly a bear to balance. They are a bit heavy. But I haven't been stuck yet. They are my cheap recco, though if you want more mud bias then look at the Insa Dakar which is modeled after a BFG mud terrain pattern. That said, looking at Camskill, they have the Hankook Dynapro all terrain for about a tenner cheaper per tire so I'd be sorely tempted there. thanks rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrowningDJC Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 For the price of insa remoulds i would spend a bit more a get new tyres. For value for money and perfromance and i would recommend looking at maxxis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suffolkngood Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Try giving someone like this a ring and ask them. http://www.kapsuzuki4x4.co.uk They specialise in off road conversion for jimny's. They probably put bigger wheels and tyres on but worth a call never the less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
