Black Jimny's don't get stuck!
If you search the forum this is a subject covered to death but they should fit at that size, you need to consider that remoulds will be slightly bigger though.

The duelers are a good at tyre and keeping the same size will save you all the gearing issues , if you still find they arent quite enough look for some mt,s the same size , but you will be suprised how good the jimny is even on road tyres

205 70 15 is the standard size so should fit fine.
The newer model Jimnys have a slightly different front bumper to the older cars so has been known to catch on bigger tyres without a lift but can be trimmed if needed (I think, I've not done this myself).
Do a quick search for tyres and you should get lots of information on what other people have done (although maybe not that exact tyre).
