WS6/SS with17sWhat size is your spare? Hello yall i upgraded my stock 16x8 rims to 17x9.5 and 17x11. I was curious on what size was the factory spare on cars that came with 17x9s from the factory. My spare tire size is 135/60/16. Will it be ok to run this size spare tire with the 17s incase of a accident?

Not sure how small the spare is,but I think that you're supposed to run the spare on the front if possible, and put one of the front tires on the rear. If the spare is a good bit smaller than the other tire on the rear, you can burn up the posi b/c one side will be spinning faster than the other. Just a thought.
