Thats probably the standard tire on regular 1500's yea...I read on a different forum that the spare tire mounted underneath the Rebel is not a Toyo 285. So I checked mine and sure enough its a Goodyear Wrangler 265. Is this standard operating procedure for Ram?
I don't mind if its not a Toyo, but it would have been nice if they spent the extra $50 or whatever for a 285.Sounds about right. No point in putting an expensive tire hidden under the truck. Just put cheapy down there.
I agree, making it consistent would have made the Rebel that much more of a well rounded packageI don't mind if its not a Toyo, but it would have been nice if they spent the extra $50 or whatever for a 285.
I agree, I don't want to spend anything on a spare tire, I want FCA to spend a little more and give me a tire that matches the size of the others!It's a spare tire, it's not exactly the thing that you want to spend money on when you consider other priorities.
Oh, ok. Guess I'll quit complainingIts a spare though, the width doesn't matter...Its like having a donut...
Only downside if you're far out where it will take them a while to get to you, in a situation like that... it might make sense (time wise) to throw on the spare yourself. Time is one thing you'll never get back.They also give you 5 years road side assistance included...so you dont have to use the spare if you dont want to![]()
all depends, demand for that service is growing so who knows, response times could get better. In situations like that I rather have an alternative i can rely on just in case I don't want to wait for who knows how long.I've always wondered how long it'll take them to get to you if you're on a stretch of highway in the middle of nowhere.
I'm just saying... that Charger on 18's blinged from the factory probabaly has a donut in the trunk... the software and speedo would get out whack with a smaller diameter, but the width is good enough to get you homeOh, ok. Guess I'll quit complaining![]()
I never used it on my charger but I had it, I assume they just call someone local to get you and pay for it. I dont imagine it would take any longer than calling a tow truck normally would.I've always wondered how long it'll take them to get to you if you're on a stretch of highway in the middle of nowhere.
That's what I was thinking, it's easy for them to have drivers under contract to them and to send them the leads to the calls.I never used it on my charger but I had it, I assume they just call someone local to get you and pay for it.

Indeed.The width may not matter but being a smaller diameter certainly does..
