just order a factory wheel and get a 265/50/18 tire, or find a totaled jeep or Durango with a hitch.

 

Citadel should have 20" wheels shouldn't it?

265/50/18? Shouldn't I increase the wall height to compensate for the decrease in rim diameter? Or would that no longer fit into that well underneath the car?

 

I thought the wheel storage only accepts a 18? or am I completely wrong on this one? Can I fit a 20" rim with 265/50/R20?

 

Personally, I'd measure myself because if you take someones word and it's wrong, it's going to SUCK!

The rim diameter shouldn't matter. It's the overall size that matters.

 

Rim size means nothing, well it needs to fit over the front brakes so a 17" will not work. All u need to do is make a tire wheel combo thats 30.6" tall .. 265/50/20 is 30.6 265/60/18 is 30.6"

Yes a steel 20" wheel with a 265/50/20 will fit.

 

I've got the tow package on my Citadel...which is in the shop right now (bumper is being resprayed). If this hasn't been fully answered when I get the vehicle back Thursday or Friday, I'll take a look underneath and see what I have. Pretty sure the full-sized spare is an 18" wheel though. Not sure of the tire size.

 

I'll look before I leave for work in the afternoon, probably update this post

R/T Durango or Tow Package stock spare tire is 265/60/18 which is a 30.5" tall tire, rim is 18x8" the 20" aluminum wheel and 265/50/20 will store in the spare tire location as well as its a 30.5" tire

 

Great, thanks! I'll do a quick measurement before I start hunting for old rim and tire combos

 

I thought Citadel came standard with a full size spare! It's an 18" rim.

 

Only with the factory towing package.

 

I bought a "full size" spare from a D owner on here who had a D (R/T I believe) with 265/50/20 stock, and the spare came on a steel with a Kuhmo 245/65/18... just looked at it mounted under my D now

 

Thanks for the info everyone! I bought a 2014 durango 20" wheel and threw on a brand new ohtsu 5000ST 265/50/R20. The whole assembly fit into the spare wheel well perfectly. It's good to have peace of mind during emergencies. That spare is a joke...Whole thing cost me ~$260 from ebay.

On another note, what do you guys do to protect the spare? or is it nicely protected being under the vehicle already? This is my first outside of the car spare tire. Pretty sure I might have scratched the rim dragging it into position...My JGC stored the full size spare inside the trunk (which makes more sense to me). I thought about plasti-dipping the whole spare for protection, or is that too paranoid? I just don't want this thing to be exposed to rocks, salt, or dry rotting.

 

If it's a matching rim to the others, plasti-dip is a good idea. My jeep has 5 matching rims and the spare has taken a beating! You can also do 5 tire rotations to minimize the amount of time 1 rim spends under the Durango.

 

Nah, it's a different style with scratches already on there. I plan on using it only in blow outs. thought about just getting a large piece of plastic that I can thread though with the pull cable. The added size of the rim is already pushing the max length of the cable.

Took three pics with the full tire inside. Can't freaking get it to embed or upload due to size...

45/65R18 Diameter : 30.5" Width : 9.6" Wheel : 18" Sidewall : 6.3" Circum. : 95.9"

will fit as spare replacement for Dodge Durango 265/50R20 = 30.4x10.4R20

 

The Fullsize spare rims on these are just black Steal rims right? I wonder if it would be a viable option for a rim and tire set up for winter or off road use to save my 20' chrome rims.

 

Yeah it's just a run-of-the-mill black steel wheel.

 

is the harness holding the donut spare the same set up to hold a full 265/50/20?

 

Thread revival!

I find it kinda goofy that the full size spare is a tad larger than the stock wheel/tire.
