1971 D100. Somehow I lost the spare tire recently - I read in another thread that the wing nut can loosen over time.
I'm trying to figure out the specs on a replacement wheel and tire, having trouble figuring this out. None of the tire shops can tell me what the correct wheel is. Does anybody have the details on what I should get?
Thanks!
Edit: Current tires are 235/75R15. I checked the specs in the manual - all it lists for the wheels is 5 lugs, 4.5 inch diameter.
So, can I buy a 5 on 4.5", 6" width trailer wheel and mount the same tire for use as a spare?

I see no reason the trailer rim wouldn't work for a spare.skepSpur wrote: ↑Mon Oct 04, 2021 6:05 am1971 D100. Somehow I lost the spare tire recently - I read in another thread that the wing nut can loosen over time.

Re: Spare tire replacement
That’s my concern, does anyone know the correct offset?
