Re: A question about rim size...
If I get a 225/75/16 or 205/75/16 will this be the same height as my
315/75/16? and what rim width will I need for this tire as a spare? or am I
way off base.
Thanks

Re: A question about rim size...
The larger tire is about 34.6 inches tall while the smaller is 29.3 inches
tall.
The smaller tire (stock size) came with a 7 inch rim although you could
safely use down to a 6 inch rim.
If you just need something to get you by (emergency use only) you can
probably get a used 33" (275-285mm) tire on an used 8 inch rim pretty
cheaply.

Re: A question about rim size...
The larger tire is about 34.6 inches tall while the smaller is 29.3 inches
tall.
The smaller tire (stock size) came with a 7 inch rim although you could
safely use down to a 6 inch rim.
If you just need something to get you by (emergency use only) you can
probably get a used 33" (275-285mm) tire on an used 8 inch rim pretty
cheaply.

Re: A question about rim size...
Your 315/75/16 tire calculates out to be 34.6" diameter, which will vary
slightly based on rim width and manufacturing variance. The 2 tires you
suggested as spares will be significantly smaller diameter.
To calculate the tire height of metric sized tires, use this formula:
(width*aspect ratio*.000787) + rim diameter = height in inches
This will give you the tire diameter in inches. You're going to need a tire
close to the same width, or a higher aspect ratio to end up with a tire
close to the diameter you are looking for. One other option would be a
larger diameter rim, but that will cost big money for rim and also tire.
if you can find a tire with 80 aspect ratio, 295 and 305 width would be
close, and if you can find 85 aspect ratio, 285 width would be close. I
think these are going to be pretty odd sizes to find, but maybe I'm wrong.

(width*aspect ratio*.000787) + rim diameter = height in inches
This will give you the tire diameter in inches. You're going to need a tire
close to the same width, or a higher aspect ratio to end up with a tire
close to the diameter you are looking for. One other option would be a
larger diameter rim, but that will cost big money for rim and also tire.
if you can find a tire with 80 aspect ratio, 295 and 305 width would be
close, and if you can find 85 aspect ratio, 285 width would be close. I
think these are going to be pretty odd sizes to find, but maybe I'm wrong.

slightly based on rim width and manufacturing variance. The 2 tires you
suggested as spares will be significantly smaller diameter.
To calculate the tire height of metric sized tires, use this formula:
(width*aspect ratio*.000787) + rim diameter = height in inches
This will give you the tire diameter in inches. You're going to need a tire
close to the same width, or a higher aspect ratio to end up with a tire
close to the diameter you are looking for. One other option would be a
larger diameter rim, but that will cost big money for rim and also tire.
if you can find a tire with 80 aspect ratio, 295 and 305 width would be
close, and if you can find 85 aspect ratio, 285 width would be close. I
think these are going to be pretty odd sizes to find, but maybe I'm wrong.
