 Post subject: Used Spare Wheel + Tire?
PostPosted: Tue Mar 27, 2012 11:43 pm 
Is $75 a good price for an OEM 2011 Liberty Sport wheel?

Also, does anyone know where I might find a used 225/75/16 Goodyear Duratrac?

Edited to add: eBay looks like a good bet. I guess I'm asking if anyone knows of a small shop somewhere with good prices. "Ernie's Tire Shack"

Considering they cost $200-$250 new, yeah its a good deal. Ebay is a good place to find one specific used tire, but remember the tread depth is supposed to be the same when using 4wd.

It'll be a spare only. The tread depth will be close enough.

I took the plunge. Came out to around $150. I'm tossing that donut straight to the curb!

Where are you storing it? Will it fit under the KK in the stock position?

Yes, the "Tow Package" KKs already come with a full-sized spare. I have one up there right now with no issues. :D

A 31 will fit nicely. I forced a 32 in but it has no air in it. If I need it I can air it up with my on board air system.

Between the full size spare, the 5,000 lb hitch, and the trans radiator, I REALLY regret not getting the tow package.

Oh well, I'll make it work

Have you check out my photos?? You will see that I have a 32" tire with air as my spare.
