Spare Wheel

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Damaged my wheel on a pothole on the weekend. Still drivable but needs looking at. Got to drop the wheel off on its own and wanted to double check I'll be ok to use my spare.

 

Current front tyres are 245/30r20 and I think the spare is xxx/80r17.

 

Will this be ok to use for a couple of journeys, if I stick to 50?

 

Thanks

Tyre size calculators will help but you'll need to know all 3 measurements for the spare to get it right. The standard spare is a 145/90/16 which I can't check properly as most calculators stop at 85. But at 85 the difference is only 2mm, so if your spare corresponds to that you'll be fine.

 

Get the measurements and go here: http://www.etyres.co.uk/tyre-size-calculator
