Off Road Tires for Countryman all4

Can anyone recommend an off road or simi-offroad tire that will fit a stock countryman All4. I'm looking for something like the BFG TAs or MTAs. Really just want them for the snow amd the looks for the winter. There has to be something out there....

there is, but it will be oversized for the tires that typically come with the car. youll also have to look at 16's since most off roading tires have larger sidewalls. but you should be looking for 235 or larger 60-70 series

205/70r16 is about as big as you can go without lifting it.

example: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ml#post4173974

Should probably consider lifting it so it actually "completes the package". If it is in fact just for winter, get snow tires like the guy in the thread above. Offroad tires actually typically suck in snow. I'd take a highway tire anyday over an all-terrain, and especially a mud-terrain. Those are death in slush and ice.

i test fit 215/70R16 on mini oem 16x6.5 et 46 wheels. they fit no problem, no rubbing and i have the factory sport suspension.
loaded the car up with 6 people until suspension was bottomed out, no rubbing.
you can go up to 28 inch OD without a lift.
i am running 205/70R16 winter tires since 2012 (27.3 inch OD)

225/65r17 BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A K02

These are great in all conditions including snow. Had to slightly mod the fender lining because it would rub on full lock. Other than that, it fits and looks great without a lift.

What is your wheel size/width and offset? Thanks.

This looks great, any idea if the 225/65/17 would work for the R60 countryman? So far I’m only seeing 215/65/17 but I feel like the 225 might work?

what were the mods to the fender lining? Did you do it yourself or was it done for you? Before or after installation of tires?

Thanks

Any update on the M7 lift kit install? I am tempted to get it for a little more ground clearance.

Love the M7 kit but then I bough it for half price. If buying new I would probably stick with the Journeys kit. I saw your post in another thread and I think the rear does come with spring blocks also they just aren't shown in the picture.

What size tires are you running? Your Mini looks awesome!
