this is probably a dumb question
i got a falt tire today on my way home from school(ran over a nail) it was the back driveside tire. anyway i put the spare on and took the tire to a place and had the nail removed and the plugged the tire. i have an ss/sc G85 and the spare tire is only 16" would it be ok to put the spare tire on in the front even tho i have the LSD. wouldnt the car think the smaller tire is spinning faster and try to make an adjustment. just seems like that wouldnt be good for the tranny. this is probably a dumb question i kno but im still pretty new to this stuff and im just trying to learn

The size you have to consider is the overall size of the tire and wheel combo. I had two spares on my car once, both on the right side. The car drove ok going home, and as long as you are not accellerating hard, you will not damage anything. The limited slip will only engage when there is enough torque present.
