Toyota is putting bf goodrich rugged trail T/a tires on their 2008 Toyota Tundra crewmax trucks in size P275/65R18 but are using Michelin ltx A/S as a spare in size P255/70R18. The Michelin is approximately 3/8" smaller in diameter. I have asked for a tire that matches the others as a spare but they refuse even though I believe it to be a safety issue in inclement weather.
