Why would you change the spare to that size sir? That’s not the same size as the 285/45/22? Or did you think it was? |

That is the spare tyre size on the L460 that is supplied with 285/45R22 tyres.

I have a full size spare and was curious if the 285/45R22 would fit in there. I may look for a single tire and swap out the spare.

Just something to bear in mind - raising the aspect ratio, increases the rolling radius, which increases the gearing, and DOES dull acceleration. I have learned this from experience, nothing to worry about, but something to consider as the impact is greater the lower the BHP of the engine…. 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17 |

The speedo now reads the same as the GPS so there is now zero difference in indicated/actual speed. I think the factory speedos are all calibrated on the low side and I understand that is usual to do so.
