Will a BFG 26565R18 fit in the underfloor spare wheel hole in a D4? Or do I need to go to 26560R18 to get one to fit?
Thanks

I managed to fit a 265 x 70 x 17 Mickey Thomson MTZ in a D3 hole although the tyre had to be deflated.

The BFG is smaller so should fit.

Thats splitting hairs, as its only .1% smaller ;)

so yer should fit if also deflated

It will depend on the overall diameter of the inflated tyre.
My spare 285/60/18 Cooper LTZ was 800mm overall diameter and would not fit in the spare well, unless deflated. I even had to remove the heat sheild.
