lift with spare tire

[inktoxicated]

anyone on here with a lift and 35/37's have a spare which is the same size as their rollers? i still have the oem 20 spare but its kinda useless now with the backspacing and obviosly being smaller. whats the odds of getting a flat with these 10 ply tires. was thinking of getting a cheap 17 with similar backspacing and throwing the cheapest 35 inch tire on it for a spare. not much of a priority right now tho

i wish i would have had a spare the last time i went mudding. would have prevented me from getting towed home by a ford.

I've just resolved that if I ever get a flat I'm taking advantage of my roadside assistance and just getting a tow.

thats what i had to do. Free towing thru insurance so i might as well use it. And trust me since i have had my truck i have had to use it 4 times now twice this year already.

ok. i guess ill just have my tow card in the glove box ready. its only a street queen anyways so not worried bout puncturing a tire on a rock or something.plus i took the sare out to remove some dead weight and i really dont want it back in their. why so many breakdowns reef?

lets see the tire was one. like 2 weeks ago my wheel hub failed. Then last year my inner tierod fell off driving thru a parkin lot. So actually only 3 times.

10 ply... Slim to none unless offroading... Anything is possible. 10 ply tires are what construction companies use on their work trucks, they can take a real beating
