As Paul4x4 states, they come only in 2 different sizes, none of them suitable for the Jimny. But they are not really interesting for you since the compound is much softer than regular Trepadors, with greater wear and tear on tarmac.

I Don't know which of the 2 they are talking about in the D44 thread, but the main thread is the same. So no diffence when driving in the british mud.

The Comp spec are mainly for rock crawling, also called "Stickies" :)
