I have a nice set of six 395/85 R20's under my wrecker. Nice big fat juicy tires! The spare is a (flat) 11.00/R20 that fits the spare tire holder nicely. The tool boxes open like they should. The rotator boom clears the spare... If I happened to be pulling my HEMAT trailer, I have a tire like what is on the truck (almost). The HEMAT is a 395/85 R22.5 and it has a "same size" spare on the front deck.
Not really concerned about the "flat" in the spare because I have 10 more with good tread that are NOT flat. Thing is, I get the distinct feeling that other than on a really bad day I wouldn't want a spare that size on the road. It would almost be like the "doughnut" tires on a passenger car. Better than nothing - but not much.
It looks like there should be space for the right size spare with some fabrication. The second picture is looking down between the cab and wrecker body / bed. Not really sure what the plate with 4 holes in it was for. Maybe a convoy light or aftermarket something-or-other...
Ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions?
