Due to my long drives to the track I'd like to have a spare in the event of a flat. Out back I have 275/60's, so I'd need the spare to be 28 inches tall. I still have the factory spare wheel/tire. I used to haul 2 extra stock wheels and floor jack, but I'm over hauling all that stuff. Anyone ever found a taller tire that fits the stock spare wheel? Thanks.

the s10 blazer 4x4 spare (for 235/70-15) is a good height and has same 5x 4.75 pattern
Thanks. I should have kept the spare out of my 95 Jimmy when I got rid of it a few years ago. However, that tire would be too tall and wide to fit on the front. My goal is to have one spare that could fit on any corner of the car. I did find a 195/80/16 Bridgestone Ecopia that might fit the stock spare wheel.

I doubt you will be able to fit a stock 215/65-215 in that well. Hits the deck lid ime. I have a 195/60-15 I think, maybe a 195/50-15 as the bigger ones didn't fit. I have it on a stock wheel. The dough nut that came with my car has a big spit in the side wall. Had a flat, put it on, made it about fifteen feet and I was back on the rim again. Had the wife bring out another wheel/tire, fortunately I wasn't far from home.
