    currently running 265/70/17 Wildpeaks on Ray10 and wondering if the stock Goodyear 265/70/16 spare is ok? Or should I go up a size 265/75/16? Also, will the lugnuts for the Ray10s work for the spare or should I carry 6 of the OEM ones? Thanks in advance

    Same size spare is optimal but it’s not enough of a difference to make me sweat it. To be safe, rotate the spare to the front if the rear is flat and stay in 2wd. Carry 6 stock lugs.

    Fork out the extra for an identical spare. It fits.

    I put on my spare when I blew a tire. Worked fine for me and I drove roughly 50~ miles with it on. Dirt and road miles.
    I have 265/70/17 Falkens with KMC wheels.
