    Keep in mind you won't be able to run chains and the mudflaps on that setup. If you live or venture into snow that it...

    Did you order a spare as well? I ordered a set of DC Extreme Country today and didn't order a spare. Now I'm wondering if I should have.

    I am going to trade my new spare in for a used 255/85/16 tire from a used tire place.

    I did the same thing when I jumped up in tire size. No cost to me and I got a full sized spare! It was a win for both parties.

    Yea I did get one. I didn’t have time to beat the ears in (little metal mounting tabs that keep the stock spare in place) so they wouldn’t mount it for me. But when I got home I was able to fit it in place. image.jpg

    If I don't purchase an extra tire for spare location, in theory could I run on stock spare for a short period of time if necessary or do I need to get a spare in the same size?

    Yeah. Spider gears will take care of it. Just don’t use a locker.

    Although I wonder if all the nanny traction control stuff would try to kick in.

    Or it might not allow 4wd if it knows that one wheel is different. I heard of chevies doing this if the front tires are different than the back.

    I am more concerned driving on roads than trails, although I would need to be prepared for that as well

    Could work in a pinch, but I’d save up for that extra tire as quickly as possible. If it poses a problem Just turn off all the traction control modes by holding the button for a few seconds.
