My tow vehicle is an Isuzu MUX and I am thinking of changing my tyres to All Terrain (A/T) but am unsure if the spare tyre under body housing will accommodate an A/T tyre profile. Has anyone done this and can advise the outcome.

Does anyone know who is supplying parts for Sunliner now? I have tried to contact Kevin Moore of MooreProducts to no avail. Last time I spoke to him he was, like most business doing it extremely tough. That was in Dec 21.
