Suzuki 16" tyres..

Post by Ginzu8 »

Hi guys. Just got myself a 95 vitara 4door. Have stock 16" mags but the tyres are on its way out. Went to my local tyre shop and have been told I am pretty limited for tyre choose for the 16" rim. After looking at this computer and data, he came up with the Yokohama GO 12 AT tyres and nothing etc.

Is there any other brands or better tyres than the above?? I am mainly using the car as a hunting but would be keen to go a bit of light off roading so is All Terrain tyres what i am looking for or something etc??

Thanks for the help

Hi

I put some Dunlop Grandtrek AT1 235/60/16's on my 95 v6 Vitara and they have been great. they have lasted well and seem to go really well off road if you let them down a bit.

pretty impressed for an AT tyre. :D

also have a set of Hankook RT01 245/75/16's that go well but are so big they ruin the gearing a bit.

Good luck

225/75r16 is a good option and you can get a few good options in tread from AT to MT and shudnt do to much to your gearing.

firestone have there 225/75r16 in the destination AT at $209 i think.

yeah, I have had them for quite a while so they must have been superseded by the AT2 and now they have both the AT2 and AT3 but the 3 looks a bit less All Terrain than the 2.
