Spare Tire Question

If I have the TRD Wheels on my Tacoma (16” x 7.5” x 10mm offset) with 33" tires...

What size spacer do I need to go along with a 33" tire mounted on the spare rim (the stock spare rim) to get proper offset?

Thanks.

 

Don't need a spacer. You'll need a pry bar, dead blow hammer and some time making room.

EDIT: Whoa...I don't know what question I was responding to...I swear I can read.

 

I mean if I need to use the spare. I know it wont fit under the bed anymore lol

 

What is the actual tire size (33x12.5, 255/85/16,...)?

 

285/75/16

 

So, anyone know? I want to put 285/75/16 tires on my spare rim - I currently have 285/75/16 on TRD rims that are spec'd at: "16-in. x 7.5-in. x 10-mm. six-spoke low-pressure alloy wheels with 5.5-in. (139.7-mm.) bolt circle and 106-mm. center bore." What size spacer will I need so that if I had to put the spare rim on it would mimic the rest of the wheels?

I know in a pinch I can just throw the spare on as is and it wouldn't be a big issue, but I'd like to know - thanks in advance.

Bump - still trying to figure it out - thanks.

 

My brother is running 285/75-16's on the steel wheels that come on the stock spares. He needed a 1.25 spacer to clear the uca's

 

50% chance to be in rear, and thats ok, right?

So if the flat is up front, mount spare on rear and move that tire up front.

No spacer required.

 

Stick your head under the truck and actually look and see what you need to do. You will be able to tell if you just need to bend some metal to fit it in or if you need to do cutting.

You just need to look. Take some measurements and take the current spare out and see.

If you are going to go through that much trouble I would by a 5th TRD wheel and do5 tire rotations.

There has to be a how to thread on this. You are expecting people to baby you.

What about the tire shop you go to? My tire guys said they are willing to help me get a new spare to fit (provided no cutting).

 

Are you replying to me? If so, re-read my post. I never asked how to fit a full size spare underneath where the spare is - I won't be able to because I have an All Pro rear bumper...I know this because I've researched. I'm not asking anyone to baby me.

 

You started this thread almost 3 yrs ago and still don't have it figured out?

 

Hasn't been an issue - just curious for a just in case I need to. Been working on other projects anyway. And apparently no one knows for sure either.

 

Check post #11

 

Post #11 says those spacers help the wheel clear the UCA - I was hoping to find out what would give it the proper offset to match the rest of the 3 wheels. If someone knows the offset of the spare wheel I can calculate the difference.
