    Total approximate miles on tire? I'm wondering when to replace my OEM tires.

    It happened around 50,000 kms (30,000 miles).

    Here's what I did. Just used what i had and cut it to fit the tire in. Going to get the bolt down to hold it in place, and I have the Cabling protected under the spare as well. I'm not spending $400+ for some Styrofoam inserts.

    So why doesn't Toyota give you that option?
