mjbaker84 Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 I have a quick question on the spare tire included with my wife's edge. It is a 2011 limited FWD and came with the 18's from the factory. I have since put on the stock 20's with great tires. If I take it on a road trip and happen to get a flat the spare tire is only what a 17-inch spare or something along those lines? Would it be safe to put the spare on and drive to the nearest shop to have the 20-inch tire fixed? or what would have to be done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thirdgenlxi Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Should be fine for just a quick jaunt, but I certainly wouldn't put it on the drive axle.... spider gears in the diff will be hating life for sure, lol.... rear only IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Check the diameter of the wheels. The diameter should be the same (or very close) and if so it's fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
