Good Job........ Just remember.......... the rolling radius & diameter of your spare needs to be close to the new ones you fitted otherwise you can't use it. Tyre Size Difference Comparison 315/70/17 & 265/75/16
Results for your selected Wheel/Tyre 1
Rolling Radius
436.4mm
Circumference
2741.98mm
Diameter
872.8mm
Wheel Cover Size
Size 011
Results for your selected Wheel/Tyre 2
Rolling Radius
401.95mm
Circumference
2525.53mm
Diameter
803.9mm
Wheel Cover Size
Size 009
Differences between Wheel/Tyre 1 & 2
Rolling Radius
-34.45mm
Circumference
-216.45mm
Diameter
-68.9mm
When your speedo reads 100km/hr you're actually at 91.43 km/hr

Does look good!

And seconding what Chook said: we put a mismatched spare on an H3 once due to the situation and listened to him crunch gears in the diff or t-case all the way into town

Thanks, I have a 35" plan for the spare I just didn't get it mounted yet.

This is a very good comparison for me. I have aftermarket 17s and the offset/backspacing of your wheels looks about the same as mine. I'm curious as to any rubbing issues as well. One thing I worry about is flexing the suspension. With the wheels sticking out further than stock, would they hit the fender vs getting tucked up in the wheel well... I would think the TD ext bumpstops would help a little in the front but I'm not sure....

I did level at 23.5" and ordered my TD extended bump stops 1/2" and should be in next week. I did notice a very slight rub in reverse at full lock. I will be taking it off road shortly and will keep you updated full extension rub.
