Just walked outside to the much loved money pit, and discovered a flat tyre

I'm running 17's on 215/45's. Obviously my space saver and old 16's will have a slightly smaller rolling diameter.

Question is, will putting one of these on s0d up my diff? I need to do a 25 mile round trip to work very soon!!

You may find the 16 could be similar in size overall. Place the 2 wheels side by side, and you can check.
But I wouldnt reccomend making a habit of driving it if they are different, as eventually it will do damage. Im sure it would survive a short journey ok.
