Hi, I am Pim from the Netherlands and I get my new Jimny February next year.
Hope to learn a lot in this forum and my first question is if it is possible to (lightly) off road with the original tyres ?
Hi Pim, welcome.
Happy new Jimny when it arrives, hope it makes you smile as you drive along.

Off road means different things to different people, I would not carry my 2021 Jimny off road here (in Guyana) on standard tires, the mud we have here will fill the treads in short order turning them into slicks that provide no traction.
I picked up my Jimny at the end of January, and at the first service the local dealership confirmed that a change in tire size would not affect warranty coverage - new tires in an appropriate tread pattern have since been ordered.
Welcome to the forum. A Jimny on standard tyres with traction control will make quite reasonable progress in most conditions but as said above there are limits especially in clay based mud. In reality though most new owners will shy away from obstacles well before the Jimny actually runs out of ability.
