What is the difference between a 205 75R15 and a 205 75D15? And can I use the D15 as a spare tire?

Expert Reply:

Due to how differently radial and bias tires will run, we do recommend all tires match. Bias ply tires will run hotter and stiffer than Radial tires so it can affect the ride and wear of both tires.

With that being said, the D designation you are referring to in something like the Loadstar ST205/75D15 # AM1ST92 will mean it is a Bias Ply tire and the R in something like the Karrier ST205/75R15 # AM10244 will refer to the tire being Radial.
