I agree! Not even on the TRD Pro. And I can tell you, the "auto lsd" doesn't do crap either.

Pleased to hear this because the tires I ordered are 285/75 18 which is very close to the diameter of the 285/65 20 and want the spare to be the same as the tires I am running.
Anyone actually got a 285/75 18 to spare to fit?

Happy at least there is a spare. My Nissan Leaf doesn’t have a spare. The Tesla I test drove last week also doesn’t come with a spare. It comes with a phone number for Tesla road service. They deliver a new tire and rim to you on the road if you get a flat.

well, I have news for everyone-Ihave been doing tires for about 20 yrs, and a lot of of the manufacturers use different size spares, it about the rolling diameter, if its close it will be ok until you get the normal tire repaired or replaced -if its not repairable. Be thankful its not AWD like the subarus and many others that have had some issues.

2% difference is very minor IMO. Seems people forget that tires wear out. So the difference between 4 tires that are 70% worn down and a brand new spare of the exact brand/size I'm guessing will have ~2% difference... I'd expect as these LT tires wear down, they probably lose greater than 3/4" on the O.D. before touching the wear bars.

Amen. We spend a lot of time far from roadside assistance, and many times far from any cellular service. I wouldn't travel anywhere without a good spare.
