However, 215/75R15 tires seem plentiful. So it is time for me to spark a tire debate, my questions are as follows: 1. I am pretty sure 215/75R15 is the maximum size for the spare tire bay without modification. True? 2. What is your favorite 215/75R15 Tire? 3. Apart from speedometer error, what disadvantage do I face with a higher profile tire?
