2019 XLT FX4
Two part question for everybody -
First, does anybody know if an OEM wheel/tire combo will fit where the stock spare goes under the truck? I suppose it would depend on the size, so I'm specifically talking about the 18 inch OEM for the FX4. I can buy a fifth off of Ebay and was thinking about getting it to replace the 17 inch steelie spare. Will it fit?
Second, any reason not to do that if it does fit? I suppose that it'll be heavier and perhaps it'll make tire rotations.. awkward because you'd certainly want to add that spare into the rotation somehow.
I suppose the only benefit would be that if you did have to use the spare, you wouldn't have to worry about getting it replaced so quickly and wouldn't be running mismatched wheels and tires.
Thoughts?
