Tyres size you will be ok on standard jimny..... But they don't look dished enough so you may need spacers to clear the calipers...

didnt really want to widen it to much as heard it can eat the wheel bearings

I bought a set of Vitara alloys and they were a very tight fit, so much so that the clip on weights on the inside of the rim fouled on the steering arm (had to get them taken off and the wheels rebalanced with stick on weights). The offset on them was ET20 compared to the standard Jimny wheels that have zero offset. If your new wheels are the same offset as the Vitara wheels I had, then 20mm spacers will just move them out to the same place standard wheels sit, so they shouldn't have any effect on the bearings.
