Hi,just wanted to open up a can of worms.

Whats better in your opinion for off road tyres,skinny or fat??

Ive got some fat 15" tyres with very meaty tread on and measure 28" and also a set of skinny 16" rims that are 31" with the tyres on.

Now im undecided what to keep for my sj and what to put on my vitara when i sell it???

Ive been told skinny is better for cutting through the mud,what do you reckon???????

keep both and get a set of 5" lift springs with a spoa conversion done too for good measure, then you can run the 31's with NO bother
