Tyre Question - Hilux

I picked up a 31x10.5xR15 tyre from the dump along with an alloy mitsubishi 15in six stud rim and want to use it as a second spare on my hilux.

Do all tyres have to have the same offset on a car? I currently have sunrasias on the car.

Thanks

If it's 15" Mitsubishi alloy it's probably +10 offset, where I expect Toyota offset to be around -23mm - I would say that's too big a difference for anything other than an emergency.

If you're in no hurry, advertise the rim here - if you're patient, you should be able to get more than enough to buy a new sunraysia style rim to suit your hilux.

I lined it up with a sunny and there is a bit too much difference.

I'll try the dump shop for another sunny.
