lexuseng Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I had to put on my spare for the first time the other day on my 2001 GS300 and found the spare to be a different size. The previous owner upgraded to a wider lower profile tire (225/55). The spare is a 215/60. I replaced the flat rear tire and then started thinking if the different size would screw up the traction control. I could have switched it to the front but was too lazy. Anyone know what this would do? Should I keep the spare or keep one of my old tires as a spare when I buy a new set (very soon)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92Lex Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 225 is thw width of the tire and 55 is the % the height of 225. So 215/60 is about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
