Will 265/70 17R fitted to the spare wheel fit under the car compared to stock size of 265/65 17R? Have not yet taken delivery of the car so unable to physically check if any spare room for the slightly larger tyre. Spare wheel is not fitted to the rear door it is located under the boot. Thanks in advance.

Yes it does, I have this size in the BF Goodrich AT and its snug, but fits.

I can confirm silvercruiser info to be correct. Fitted Cooper AT3 265/70 17R and the spare wheel fitted fine.
