At present my vehicle has Izzarda Matador 205/70R15 fitted with a Bridgestone Dueler HT as a spare.
I am looking to fit Toyo Proxes.
Will not be off roading.
Anybody using Toyo Proxes and thoughts on their use please? Thanks

You won't find Toyo Proxes in the correct size for a Jimny unless you go to bigger rims. I briefly had some on my Jimny in 195/50r15 size (they came off my now lifted MX5 which is on Jimny all-terrains). Obviously they looked very small and the gearing was miles off, but also the stiffness of the lower profile tyre really showed up the softness of the Jimny suspension, making it very skittish and pretty horrible to drive. But I suppose none of that is particularly relevant to what you want.
