Wandell...Quick Question

Well maybe not so quick...But it should be an easy one for ya.

What size tire is the spare that you put on underneath your bed? You are running about a 35" tire or the eqivalent of that roughly, correct?

Here's my gameplan. Right now, I'm running 315/75s on a 16" rim. My spare is the OEM spare that came with the truck, a 17" rim...(still has the old tire on it).

Now I still have my FX4 OEM rims that I want to throw another set of tires on, equal to the about same height as my current 315/75/16s...

So my question is, what size tires would be equal to (or even slightly smaller) to what I currently have on my truck. It's not a 315/75/17, they don't even make that do they?

I need 4 new and one that holds air so I can throw a full size spare on if I ever get a flat, regardless of whatever wheels I have on, the 16s or 17s...

make sense?

Youwill need the 315/70/17. It is barely smaller than the other, so you wont notice much of a differance.
