Full size spare or no

shoyld I do a set of 5 aftermarket wheels and tires or no?
Pros?
Cons?

 

Pro: you have a matching full size spare

Con: its more expensive ​

 

My main concerns are fitting the spare underneath and the Tpms issues

 

If you are buying different size tires and have a 4x4 you will want a new spare tire of the new size for sure .

 

What's the point of a mismatching spare?

 

What TPMS issue? There is no TPMS in the spare.

 

Good point

 

Ah, gotcha. I have a full sized spare, but just have it on the steelie tucked away and don't rotate it in. It's just there for emergency.

 

Yes for a full size spare.

 

I rotate my spare in. Doesn't fuck with the system at all. Currently a tpms wheel is in the spare and I get that readout on the dash

 

Pardon my ignorance, I plan to upgrade from 265/70R16 to 265/75R16. If I have 4X4 and don't upgrade spare to 75, what issues will I have?

 

Exactly

right, so one wheel your Running isn’t registered

 

If you're in 4x4 with the mismatched spare it could fuck with it. If you're in 2HI you'll be alright for a short distance.

 

With a small size change like 265/70 vs 75, there’s really not much point in a matching spare unless you do 5 tire rotations. If you get a flat off road, the size won’t make much difference. If you get a rear flat and proceed to drive 3000 miles in a straight line, I suppose you could get some differential wear ... or you could swap the smaller tire to the front ... or just get the flat fixed.

 

Understood. Thanks.

 

Bingo! It doesn't throw any errors on my dash either

 

Haha I realize that, and this is the method I’ll prob end up going with I just would rather know what the 4 I’m driving on are running at

 

Yes to the Full Size spare and buy a Hitchgate

 

Yesh that uhhh doesn’t really look right imo. This ain’t a Wrangler...
