lambert:
Close but i'm on 31-10.50-15's and am after knoblies sorry. :)

Guardian.:
THE ROLLING SIZE MUST BE THE SAME AS YOUR TIRES, WIDTH ISNT THAT IMPORTANT AS A GET YOU HOME JOBBIE, BUT IF YOU USE A SMALLER TYRE YOU WILL [!Expletive Deleted!] YOUR AXLE, I THINK QUITE QUICKLY AS WELL.

Range Rover Blues:
Not many 4x4 have space savers.  More importantly these have been thoroughly tested by the manufacturer for homologation and safety and all that guff.

IT IS ILLEGAL to use a tyre of a different size on any one axle and to use thinner tyres on the back than the front.

So, your options.

No spare and a tin of YAK
Spare of nominaly the same size but worn down, drive home carefully
Check your breakdown cover includes tyres
non-compatible spare and take the risk of getting stopped.

I can't get my spare in either, so I go laning with Tim as his spare will fit :D

If you go for the last option and have a flat only fit it to the front, the LSD in the rear won't like having different sizes fitted each size, front will be ok in 2WD or 4WD only when you really need it.

strapping young lad:
considering you are posting means your car is at home? NOW would be a good time to take the spare to a garage and get a cheap remould of the same size fitted before you find out the hard way
