That would be great! i thought they would be impossible to find...

Hi Clifton.J the original tyres fitted were I beleive 32x11R15 however they are no longer available in that width.
You can either go for 31x10.5R15 or 32x11.5R15
There is a greater range of patterns in the 10.5 size whereas the 11.5 is now mostly mud patterns.

Hi Wardy,

The documents and manuals that I have all point to the standard size being 31x10.5R15. As you say this size is readily available in pretty much all patterns so is still a good fit. I am thinking of going to 33x10.5 muddies which should help the clearance offroad .

Cheers,

TimJ.

Hi TimJ you could be correct, Im going by what my local Tyre place told me when I showed them the original tyre size, I have the 32's fitted in a MAXXIS Buckshot and have no complaints with them, used to have Savero 31's fitted but had a few near misses on dirt roads

PS would have fitted the Cooper STT's but couldn't afford them

I knew once you saw it you would buy it

Woohoo, well done Dave!! Another one in the club! Hope it turns out to be a good one for you. I was wondering when you were coming clean after the photo of the roofrack showed it.

The unique Game number is stamped on the plate on the firewall in front of the gearstick.

Cheers,

Tim.

I was reading a book today that states over 250 of these were made, is this correct???
