Thanks for the replies. I haven't heard of a Class A coach with different wheels for front and rear except with alloys. I had hoped they had a spare stowed under the rear of the chassis like some Fleetwood Class A coaches do at least thru 2007 that I can confirm is true. My '96 Pace Arrow Vision has it there on a crank-up cable attachment. Maybe I can adapt one there on the coach I am leaning toward. Is there any room under the frame and behind the gas tank and in front of the rear fascia? I don't intend to be stranded along the road without a spare I can change myself.
In looking at a picture of a 96 Pace Arrow, it looks like it has 19" or 19.5" rims on it in which case most of those had spares. When the larger class A's went to 22.5" rims, very few of them have spares.
On my 2005 Fleetwood Excursion 39S DP, in one of the right rear compartments, there appears to be a place to put a tire, not tire and rim. The back and bottom of the compartment are molded into a curved shape looking like it would take a tire at a 45 deg angle. I've never seen an Excursion or Discovery actually have a spare tire in the compartment.
