17" emergency use spare. Ok if you have 17", some trucks are 20".
IDK, You'd have to try one and see, I think it would.
There’s a difference in rim size and tire size. I would still bet that if you looked up the tire size it is the same size dimensionally as the rest of your tires that are on 20” rims. The rim size is irrelevant. Can you check to see what both tire sizes are? FCA doesn’t often use compact spares on 4WD/AWD cars, especially on trucks and/or vehicles with tow packages.
If that was the case wouldn't they just use a 20" steel rim and tire? Just wondering.
17” steel wheels are wildly more common than a 20” steel wheel, they’re lighter, and cheaper to make. Many people own their vehicles their entire life and never need their spare, so if the manufacturer can save a few bucks per car and make the spare a steel wheel, you can bet your bottom dollar that’s what they’re going to do.
Definitely grab a pic. It’s unlikely it’s a temporary use tire, it’s probably a normal use tire. I can’t recall ever seeing a temp use tire on a full size pickup.
True to a point, my '01Ram SLT had a full size spare, 16", same tire as on truck. Never used it in 16 years. But things happen could need it tomorrow.
Wow, I stand corrected.

Yeah my 03 Ram had the same crappy 20” stock tire on a steel rim. And I used it once or twice. Hence the crappy stock Goodyears lol.
See the pic below, on the tire says temporary use only. Use just to get you to a place to get another tire the size you need.
