Larger Spare Tire?
I have recently replaced the stock 235-75/15 tires on my 1989 F-150 with 31-10.5/15 tires, and I still have the standard spare.
My question is, if I get a flat and put the stock spare on with the 31's is this going to hurt things until I can get the tire repaired?
Thanks.

If you use it on a non-driven wheel, or on an open differential, there will be no effect with respect to extra wear. With a LSD or locker; however, you want to replace it with the right size ASAP.
