Which spare wheel

Morning all, I have fitted genuine Landrover 19" Alloys to my Sport but still have a standard 17" Alloy wheel as a spare, is it ok to use this if I have a puncture? Thanks in advance Thumbs Up

Using this website - http://www.etyres.co.uk/tyre-size-calculator.htm

the difference in diameter comes out at 1mm or 0.14%.

The site recommends a maximum difference 0f 2.5% - so you appear to be well within that!

Thanks Supacat, you learn something everyday, that is a really useful tool on that website. I can rest assured that the spare is ok and won't damage the drivetrain, thanks again Thumbs Up
