Hey folks,
Somewhat new to the Sprinter scene... about 4 months ownership now.
My rig came with (4) big 285/17 tires and wheels (in addition to the stock alloy set of 5 wheels including spare).
The stock tire size is roughly 29.5" in diameter and the tires on the aftermarket wheels are more like 32" in diameter.
My concern would be using the stock tire/wheel as a spare because of the rather large differences in diameter. Would/could running a smaller tire for a spare hurt the drive train?
Thanks!
