Spare tire question??

ok I am driving x with limited slip rear diff. So my qustion is if you got spair tire that is not as much worn as the other four and you need to use it. How is the best way to do it? Take the 4x4 fuses out? use it at front or rear?

As long as the tire is the same size you will be fine.

wear is not a concern as mentioned... its the two different size (stamped) tires that screws things up.
