Phil, we do carry two spares. The narrower one goes in the normal place behind the rear axle. The wide one stands up behind the Dodge's center console. All my O.D.'s are the same no matter the width. Soon, I'm ordering 5 new steel power wagon wheels for the XTC from Stockton Wheel. They have been in business making wheels since the 1800's when they made wagon wheels. I'm going to slightly larger tires, so I thought it time to rethink the whole wheel thing. The new tires are Cooper Discoverer LT315/75R16: load range E, 12.5" wide, O.D.: 34.45": max load: 3860 pounds. In massaging the super single concept I'm now thinking of going with 16x10" wheels, with a 6.25" backspacing for the 2 front wheels. They have a 1/2" solid steel center for expedition use. I'll order 3 of these. The rears will be a pair of 16x11" wheels with the same 6.25" back spacing. In a pinch, the 3rd/spare 10" wide wheel/tire can be used on front or rear.
Ryan, if one is afraid of heights, this is not a good place to be.

That's the one and only Whazoo in the foreground showing the immensity of the surroundings on the way up to Imogene.
