Tire Size

Went to the tire store to see about changing my 265 "C" loads for 295 or 305 "E" loads. The tire man politely pointed out that the spare then would not fit next to my new 4" exhaust. Other than having to through the spare in the bed any solutions>

My stock spare, 265, has never seen the ground. Ive gone thru a set of 305's and trying to wear out a set of 315's now. If it came to changing out a rear flat, spare goes on the front, front tire to the rear.

There are guys on here that have 305's for spares, they will fit, kind of.

I always thought running two size tires on a 4x4 was a no no?
