Default Will a new wheel and full-size tire fit in spare space?
I have a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. The tires are 245 70R17. The spare is significantly smaller. I'm purchasing an additional WHEEl and FULL-SIZE TIRE and was wondering if it will fit in the compartment that holds the spare.

Good morning. This question should be moved to the Grand Cherokee section.

I would measure one of the wheels for diameter and width, then measure spare tire area.

Okay, the one and only time I had a flat, the bad tire fit into the well perfectly. That's on my 2000. IDK about yours.
