In my post 12368 I asked about my camper trailer wheels fitting the Prado. The replys where right and the wheels will not fit the Prado. I was in Brisbane today and chased done one secondhand rim for a second spare wheel. This was very time consuming and demonstarted that Prado wheels are difficult to obtain. I also think I might as well of bought a new one for the price.

Anyway I discussed tyres with the wrecker who informed me that my current spare a 265/70R16 is not compatable with the tyres on the Prado which are 275/70R16. He tells me if I put the spare on I will bind or wind up the diff or transmission or something to this effect. Is this right?

Looks like I'm up for two new tyres to make everthing even. Looking forward to your replys.
