Suzuki Jimny Drive Impressions On and Off-Road after 31” Tires and Suspension Lift-Kit
Вставка

- Tried to share my opinion on the vehicle feel after lift kit and new 31” tires and 15” wheel installation.
Pretty happy with the way it drives when it comes to acceleration, holding speed on the highway and braking as well.
The overall confidence wrt all aspects of the drive has really gone up.
On paper , bigger/heavier tires = poor braking
But in reality, the wider contact patch with road leads to better braking and the reduced braking due to heavier tires gets accommodated for.
Speedo error is around 6%.
Ofcourse it feels slightly slower than the stock vehicle, but it really doesn’t feel like a compromise due to the huge improvement on all other fronts.
The jimny definitely needed a better steering damper even on the stock setup, the foamcell pro does wonders and feels amazing compensating for thr increased tire size also.
The amount of efforts you're doing out in the rain just to show us and the thorough explanation you've done your channel need millions of subscribers
This person is an encyclopedia of Off-road vehicles
Never underestimate the capabilities of a Jimny. It’s a platform that has proven credentials of over five decades all over the globe. Big boys will have a tough time keeping up with a well prepared Jimny, just like our beloved Indian Gypsy King. Awesome review and video. Keep rolling !!
Lekin bhaiya Thar to thar hai
🤣🤣🤣
@@arjitagarwal007 a thar is a thar. A Jimny is a Jimny. No one is comparing a Thar with A Jimny 😁
@@punjabiglobetrotter7685These thar fanboys are always swallowing the word 'thar' for breakfast 😂
That water Spray coming out of wheel arches,looks good and satisfactory. Your Cars Looks Very Nice, big wheels will surely help to increase highway drive mileage.
Thank you
Great review for the 31" tyres and ironman suspension. Jimny looks sick. Such beautiful stance. Keep rolling with such great content man. Cheers
Absolutely amazing, answered each and every question that may arise. 🙌. Will wait for the next video
Really appreciate the effort you put in and it’s very technical too so hats off. Looking forward for next vlog, keep up the good work 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Suzuki owes you millions bro! Seriously !!!
Its always a fulfilling experience whenever I see your videos especially when I have started following your channel post booking jimny for myself and was really looking out for some sensible, credible , technical , informative and more value added information for my own understanding. Kudos to you and your teams efforts for putting such simple yet very informative and value added content for us....from one fellow UA-camr to another. Keep enhancing our knowledge with your Vlogs. much love and respect 💪👍🏻
Great video! Love the Jimny and how you showcased your thoughts. Appreciate the commitment to get ths shots.
Thank you
i really appreciate the efforts it takes to make these videos. Always brings a smile on my face when i see a new video in my subcriptions.❤❤❤
Looks so very beautiful. The stance is just perfect ❤
Dear Jaideep,
It is a pleasure listening to your well researched and immaculately explained videos.
Keep up the good work.
God bless you.
Was eagerly waiting for this video after the last installation video. Thank you. Looking forward to many more.
I don't have any car and still watches yours videos just for teachincal knowledge and the way u explain
Thank you for detailed information.
This is alot of effort making such videos in rain , well done 👍
Your channel shows what's necessary on the Indian road rather than features like sunroof, wireless charger etc.
Much appreciation! kindly enumerate the materials needed for this set-up. thanks a ton!
You seem like a very cool person. subscribed. Nice human being.
Great video validating the 2 inch lift from ironman
Can't wait to get mine
Thank you
Excellent 👌 great going
I love your modifications❤
Hi Jaideep,
I remember you from one of the videos made by Abhinav Bhatt. In that video, you showed your trailer made for carrying bikes.
I have a question for you. When we drive for hours in the snow, there is a lot of snow+mud which gets accumulated in the wheel wells. These are hard and difficult to break due to sub zero temperatures. How well your tyres setup will cope up with it given the fact that there is a very little gap between the rubber and wheel arches. Would you require to frequently break those frozen snow+mud.
Thanks and do keep posting technical videos of Jimny! Your technical video are a hit on Team-bhp as well and like minded people really appreciate your content.
More power to you!
Regards,
Akshay Anand
we need more exterior videos maaan., that jimny looks notoriously beautiful, you need to replace that front grill its very bad looking chrome
Looking for someone with a honeycomb grille
The stance from the looks of it has improved miles imo. If possible, jaydeep can you show how it stands against your other vehicles. Also hours the mileage after upgrade. Great update 👌🏽
Great modification and awesome looking jimny
Watching your videos are visual delight sir 🎉
Thank u for making such a good informative video.
Good video
Good effort
Pleasure watching it🙌🏼
Beautiful ride👌👌. Great video with great explanation. Waiting for more jimny videos.
On the gap that was left: wouldn’t that be affected (reduced) if there was load in the car? I don’t know how your Jimny had in luggage / storage, but I assume the gap would reduce in a partially / fully loaded car. Not a cause for concern?
finally been waiting for this video
time to invest in a good microphone brother, you'll channel is going to be famous soon.. fire content apart from the click bait market.... go for rode wireless go ii or the dji mic.. all the best ...
Great content
Great dedication 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
5-7% variance should become large when counting it for service interval, like 10k service etc... But it's only for people who don't know about their vehicles, you're good to go
Great Efforts taken to demonstrate the capability.... Great Work too...
Any recommendation for a set of Dampers & Coils to for 2022 Grand Vitara MT RWD. I had upgraded the Tyre from the stock 215/60R17 Apollo Apetura Cross to a 225/55R17 Continental Ultra Contact UC6; was offered a choice of a 235/55R17 Continental Sport Contact too but was apprehensive of it as the stock wheel was 7J. I use it mostly in city and some occasional highways runs and hence the choice of a sedan Tyre over a SUV Tyre - this car is used mostly within a radius of 150Km of Chennai.
Nice information and details about the vehicle. Just need to use proper camera and mic, sound is not so clear. 👍👍
Still learning 😁
Sir ji Jaideep chahal please install president cb radio 😅
Phenomenal.....
Oh there it is. Thank you
Snow chain can not be fixed with the kind of gap it has.
What could be the maximum tire size that can be used with a snow chain
1. Without the lift?
2. with the lift?
@1:43 if that car would have served more, then build quality test would also be over😂😂
But it didn’t 😁
Sir could you kindly share the exact tire specs on this white Jimny? Also can you share the exact suspension upgrades you have done on this white Jimny?
You should also do some upgrades in the interior; especially with regards to storage space, driver’s seat height adjustment, and second row recline angle.
I am facing some issues with my Jimny top model. I had gone to service centre today. They had no idea why the problem is happening. Then we tried the demo Jimny, even it had the same issue. Now I guess it’s going to be the first case in India to be referred to MSIL for their feedback and how to solve the issue . It might be with yours too. In a specific way of driving, the sounds and vibrant come. We need to talk
Amazing
After getting discount of close to 2.75 on my Jimny zeta AT, planing to install 235 85 r 16 KO2 on it, curious to know about gear reduction requirment?
Not really needed after the remap and the throttle tuner
While on 150meters of rock climb, i observed burning smell from transmission, which usually we observe in manual transmission, did u or ur any of group member had any such experience??
Hello bro watching from the Philippines, may I ask what wheel spec are you running with in this video?
These are 15x8j ET-19 American Racing wheels
Very good explanation
If you’re doing 70-80% on road and the rest off road or bad roads, are the lift kit and larger tires still worth it or just sticking with the 235’s like in one of your previous videos without the lift kit?
Looks like a nice overlander basic Jimny.
Not sure if you've noticed but 2 toggles between L and 2nd gear so not only 2nd. Try it out.
stunning!
I’m running 2inch ironman kit with American racing wheels with 31/10.5 bfg rear it’s scrapping a bit.
HI Jaideep. Fan of your videos and the details you go into. Just had a question, saw another Jimny video where the guy had put 235 Yokohama if I am not mistaken and was complaining about the ride not being as smooth as the stock tires along with vibrations. Would that be true or something must be off with his setup?
Sir I want to upgrade my jimny tyres just like yours...
Have few questions
1. Mileage drop if any ??
2. Is it really worth the upgrade where mostly I have to drive 95% in city???
My thought is to keep stock tyres for 45k km. Then get things upgraded, if mileage isn't getting effected much.. would definitely spend money .
Sold my thar for this!!
One of my friends has upgraded jimny's tyres to 235/75r15 (yokohama geolandar).. He is getting only 8kmpl to 10kmpl mileage after upgrading the tyres.. Drive quality becomes lil bit bouncy (just lil bit)... Do you satisfy by your decision to sell thar & buy Jimny?
From all of the rides I have installed 31”32, there definitely was a mileage drop, bit bouncy as mentioned above, and initial pick up takes a little longer.
Jimny is a great fun car but if you’re concerned about mileage after mods, this ain’t the right choice for you. Thar is a wonderful all rounder too.
@@avinash2_ sir I feel thar has its +
But jimny is more easy to drive car, and did offloading today. Completely satisfied with the stock jimny.
Will not get wheel upgraded.
For short hieght people or max. 5,8 hieght people can buy jimny and will feel comfortable.
Secondly no matter what if you have money go for automatic variant only
Because in 2023 driving way too old school manual would be painful by end of first year itself.
BTW my stock jimny, in city is giving me a mileage of 12.1 - 12.5. Which is really decent.
Drive slow, drive safe and enjoy the drive . My moto for having thar or similar vehicle.
Thar petrol Automatic- 5/10
Jimny petrol automatic- 7.5/10
@@scritorrI have upgraded mine to 215/75/R15 Yokohama.. giving similar mileage.. driven just 1000 kms in 2 weeks 😂
@@1976johnybrasco where do you live ?? Is there really need for it , not cosmetic look, but as in driving comfort??
The problem I faced with thar AT tyres is that stones get stuck in the wheel groves and created sound all the time , was a pain....
That's why I don't feel comfortable going for AT tyres where mostly I'll be driving on highway so Highway tyres are quiet.
Snow chains are out of question with this setup. right?
Please watch the full video :)
The intro music, seems to ring a bell. OG Autocar is it ?
Feels like somehow it might create little problem if we run in flooded area..very little space for free flow of water because of that little gap with such big tyre and with mud that will be worse
Hi sir
Awesome content
Need advise if i should i buy or not!
I drive tata harrier
My need is - when i drive in snow conditions, i need to tie snow chains on my tyres! When i tie snow chains, the chains touch the shower metal part!
Also due to this less space between tyre and shocker i cant even upgrade my tyre size!
If I increase tyre then i cant tie the chains at all!
Do recommend what else can be done???
Hello Sir, any update about your thar, I saw your video on Mr. Abhinav channel, where you have fitted 16 inch steel rims with BF goodrich, and you have told that you will shift to alloys soon, since then haven't seen any update, if done please share video link. Thanks
Sorry buddy, sold the Thar long back 😁
Hi Jaideep.... I booked my Jimny today after watching your video.
Now, you have to tell me, from where to get BF Goodrich 215s in Punjab???
Those are as rare as hen’s teeth 😬
@@TreadTrails 🤣🤣🤣.....What do you think about the Apollo Apterra AT2 225 70 R15? This width and height seems like a solid alternative to me for this size.
Where do you plan to install the cb radio jaideep bhai, and which brand. Also are you planning to install diff lockers on jimny? If so then which brand?
Hey JD out of curiosity, why 225 75 r16 by bfg not sold ..are they not good...isnt it the suitable size to go for?
It is better to buy an auto over manual with such gear system. Am I right ?
I had initially booked an manual but luckily got an auto.. life saver in Delhi ncr
I drove auto… didn’t like sorry… got a Manual one 😊
When in low range, if i want to lock it in second gear and do a second gear start, how to do in this automatic?
There's this braking and then there's my first gen Thar's.. under these conditions it would've been entertaining to say the least 😅
What happened to video quality? Not even 1080p/HDR
Bro what mileage you are getting on these tires .
Go for a body lift it will keep the suspension geometry without rubbing. This is a common gypsy mod.
This is already lifted. 2"
@@HorizonTravels1988 suspension or body
Hi! Incase I want to upsize the tyres for the Jimny ( keeping the rim size as stock) what is the maximum size you would recommend with the stock suspension..
What is the expected price different from 3 door jimny to 5 door expected in Australia?
Thank you for sharing..
Which compay lift kit you have installed in this Jimny ??
Ironman 4x4
How has the stability of the car changed after upsizing? Balance/ body-roll and control?
Does the stock Jimny gives better comfort or the aftermarket suspension gives better comfort ?
Can you please tell me how is the ride quality after the suspension upgrade?? Did it get compromised or got better??
Hello! What about wobble at 5 door version jimny?
No wobble if full suspension kit including steering damper and angle correction bushes are used
. I'm booked. Any issues when I buying Jimny. Which one good thar or Jimny?
pls make a video on how does its all grip works and is it better than thar's locking diff.
Hi Jaideep, I wanted to ask how do you get away with law, while having bullbars?
Would you recommend 225/70 with the original R15 alloy?
Hey man this is awsome! Unfortunately I'm from Europe and those assholes decided to ban this car ovee here but I'm still planning to buy it and travel across asia and africa. Can i ask you how much is the price for the car plus the 32" wheels? Thanks in advance.
The car here is like 20k euros and wheels + tires another 3-4k euros
@@TreadTrails that's not bad at all! I would like one of those. In the future if you're available I would like to buy one of those and if you could make it like the one in the video that would be awesome! The 31" looks like a beast, do you think it can make it across all the terrains of Africa? I'm looking for something comfortable that would take me anywhere.
Can you manually drive in 2W and in 4x4 when we want?
Yes
Is jimny e20(ethonol blend) compatible??
How about Fuel efficiency ?
Sir could you please share this exact tyre size.. thanks
Which are the rims used in this
Hi, when one is in ‘2’ gear, do 1 and 2 come into play or just the second gear ? Thanks
@@ButchersBill thanks
Price of tyres and alloys
Sir, what is the total cost of mods till now?
Great
What do You size tired used?
Please add a skid plate
Yes making one soon
he have pool of knowledge about mods on cars.... with technical representation..
If the jump is high than definitely that 31 gonna touch .. In tough off roading it will not work.. Will tear out that mud guard/fender
If the jump is high , even stock will touch 😁
@@TreadTrails I don't think stock will touch!! But may b!
👌👌👌👌👌👌
Try to do an actual off road vs thar 🤥 and you'll know which one is better
Tires looking odd.😢
can a sunroof be added to this
Yes , if need be
hindi ni aaati kya
