Tire and wheel question
I have an extra tire and wheel from my GLK size : P235/50R19 . I am buying a new 2012 ML which has a 8.5 J x 19 ET 59 wheel and a Tire Size 255/50 R19.
My question is will the old GLK wheel and tire fit on the ML and can it be used as an emergency spare in case of a flat tire? I know nothing about tire sizes and wheels..Thank you.

Greg--- Thank you.. I just have 1 wheel and keep in in my garage. I feel it has to be better than the donut they give you in the trunk. I would just use it to get to the tire store.
