How wide is the spare? Maybe I can track down 4 of those? There's not a safety issue with that is it? But some of the trucks actually came with a full set of steel wheels, either 8 or 9 inches wide. Those are the ones i want. Unless 4 of those spares will work.



2002 to 2008 Ram 1500s with the factory alloy 20" wheel package came with 20" steel spares with the same 275 55 20 tire as the 4 on the truck. These wheels are plenty beefy. The OEMs are not going to make a flimsy spare for a truck.
My 2006 Ram 1500 4x4 had 20s and a 20" spare. My 2007 was originally equipped with 17s so the spare was also a 17" size.
