Will a 305/65/17 (33x12/17) fit on spare??

[PENROSE]

How big of a tire can you mount on the spare before you need some kind of adapter. What could I use.....if I needed one???

[SwiCago]

I have a 305/70R16 on the spare mount. ~34"

[BLUE THUNDER]

I have 305/65/17 no adapter

I fit a 35 on the spare with no spacer. The glass even opens

Don't want 305/65/16's.......I want 305/65/17's

Mine are 305/70R17

34" x 12.5" x 17"

And Nitto does make them. Actually they are 33.9 inches, but they are booked as a 34.

I mounted them on Walker Evans beadlock wheels, and had them dynamically balanced at a race shop that did a very good job of it. As I understand it, America's Tire (chain of stores) has the best price, but I haven't been looking on the market since I got mine the better part of a year ago.
