My dad's Gen3 Jimny is running 205/70/15 tyres and I want to swap my Gen4 LCV 195/80/15 onto his, will my tyres fit his standard wheels.
Pic of his wheels attached.
Many thanks

Yes it will be fine.
The percentage difference is within the normal tolerance for tyres anyway so you will not notice it

Sorry Martin one more question. I'm planning on putting BF Goodrich AT 215 75 15 on my standard LCV steel wheels that it comes with., I just wanted to confirm these will fit on the wheels okay? Thanks in advance

Out of interest, are the 195/80R15 tyres marked as such, or are they simply 195R15? Traditionally in car tyre markings, no aspect ratio is quoted for 80% (strictly speaking, 82% is a "normal" radial tyre, but you'd be pushed to tell the difference).
My first car had 125R12 tyres!
