I'm running 31" insa turbo Sahara desert and they have been spot on , they dont make to much noise on the road , off road grip is key to getting about . I don't think they are classed as a 50/50 tyre prob more like 30/70 . In my experience I would reccomended these .

Thanks for the reply are remoulds any good i have normally stayed away from them? Have you got standard wheels?

The Grabber AT2s, or the Newer ATs are epically good tyres on and off road.

Better than BFG ATs IMO.

I personally avoid remoulds, as all the ones I've come across have been MUCH heavier than new tyres, and I've also had some fall apart on me.

Never had a remould fall apart on me - have found some to be better than the originals they copy and being cheaper are, of course, a lot cheaper to replace when you get a sharp rock or half hidden steel fencing slash out the sidewall of your tyre when you're off road

205/75R15 will fit OK on standard jimny rims.
