The fourth generation of the Suzuki Jimny is on sale in our market in a 5-door rendition. The model has proved its mettle in terms of tuning potential internationally. Now, it is repeating the show in India as well. Earlier we shared pictures and videos of an example with 20-inch rims and a 5-inch lift. Now, we came across another modified Maruti Suzuki Jimny that gets even bigger 22-inch alloy wheels, draped in low-profile tyres. The alloy wheels feature a multi-spoke design with a machine finish, and the tyre size happens to be 265/35/R22.
The video is uploaded by Tarun Vlogs3445 on YouTube, where the host shows public reaction for the modified Jimny. While certain owners are still waiting for the delivery, the owner here has got the delivery in only 3-4 days after booking one. Of course, these alloy wheels have increased the appeal and road presence of the Jimny, but the increased contact patch will negatively affect its performance and handling. Since deliveries have just started, we are looking forward to seeing some interesting and purposeful modifications on the Jimny.
