Hello All :happy160:
Well as far as I can tell my soon to be delivered Laramie 4X4 Hemi quad cab
will have 20" rims and tires and a 17" rim and temp use spare matching the
O.D of my OEM wheels.
I have had NO LUCK finding a 20" steel wheel to use as a spare so I guess I'll
start looking on Ebay for a 20" take-off.
If anyone has any other ideas I would welcome your input.
Many Thanks
Dante

Why bother? Its just your spare... as long as it has the same OD as your other 3 you're fine.

Yeah don't worry about it man. If anything put a good cheap 17" tire on. So you will be able to run it wherever or how fast you need

Ah Yes But...

I've just placed an order for 5 Toyo Open Country AT IIs in 295/65R/20 so the
spare must go :licklips:

That's larger than the OD of the OEM tires, isn't it? Are you sure it will fit? There's not a ton of room back there. P,us, if it weighs more than the stock 17'er I'd worry about the mechanism failing.

Hi Audio1der
Spare will be carried in the bed for sure and Bilstein's set at 2.1" will handle the
clearance in the wheel wells.
