Spare Tire Question 2003 Discovery
Hey guys so earlier this year I got bigger tires and a lift.(See sig below).
I'm in need of a spare tire and I was wondering if our trucks had limited slip?
I run 275/65/18 BFG AT's, and I just recently purchased a 275/65/18 BFG Rugged Trail TA tire for 30 bucks in the hope that I could use it as a spare tire.
They are different treads so there is a slight difference in the size. Would it be ok to use this as a spare? Or could I end up damaging something?

You should be fne using that tire, if you were totally locked up with a full locker it will just chirp more and wear the other tire differently than the spare. You should be just fine though since the diffs will allow some spin and different wheel speeds.
As long as you have been around and you have to ask if your truck has limited slip. "NO", you need to read up on what makes a Rover tick.
By the way no Rover other then one model some 30 years ago ever had limited slip, the rest are open diffs.
