Changing tire size - spare too?
I am looking to go from 265/65R17 to 265/70R17. Is it mandatory to buy a new spare tire also? Can you run 3 of the 265/70 and 1 of the 265/65 if you get a flat?
Thanks.
Thanks.

search around, there are huge debates on this. some will say absolutely no, some will say it doesn't matter if its just a temporary solution. ideally you should have a full size spare but with such a small difference in your sizes, you should be fine. if you had to run it, the front would be the best if you're driving around in 2wd.
