if i have my 17's (tires are 215/40/17) on and i got a flat, would it be alright to put on the stock 15 inch rim with a 185/60/15 snow tire just to get home. also would that tire fit in the spare tire well. i would check but i still dont have my baby.... tis another week at least

No the factory wheel will not fit in the spare tire compartment, it will fit length wise, but will stick out the top.
WARNING: the toyota factory jack will not hold, I used mine once in my garage and as I lifted it bent sideways and the car fell, luckly it bend all the way rather then sliding to a spot where it could puch through the floor or do body damage, but if i was under it, then, ouch.
