Full OD is important with some of the mechanical locking differential $ets …Tirerack sells new donut tires FYI.
I had a Jeep with a full sized donut. Wheel was the same as the others, too.
I want a set!

That is by far the most impressive spare rim I've ever seen.
Seen a few of the rolling nightmares here using FOUR donuts at once! Guess that’s what happens when you can’t afford real tires!I hate those temp spares. When ever i see someone on the road with one I give the a wide berth. IMHO those spares give folks a false sense of security, kind of like a life jacket that really doesnt float. I bought slime plug/fill kits for each of my vehicles and would only use the temp spare as a last resort like a blow out.
New memo-NO Kumho temporary spares!Here we go again! 2018 Genesis G80 (basically the same car) and the spare had never been mounted. Another Kumho randomly separated. View attachment 175761View attachment 175762
My 2006 Lexus has a full sized alloy and has the original Dunlop SP with the red and yellow dots. Grease crayon from factory at Tahara Aichi. At least I got to see what the rims looked like when new (all 4 on car peeling and curb rash on 2, got car used 10 yo).That is by far the most impressive spare rim I've ever seen.
Report it. Will likely result in a recallHere we go again! 2018 Genesis G80 (basically the same car) and the spare had never been mounted. Another Kumho randomly separated. View attachment 175761View attachment 175762
Report it, you may save someone an accident if it failed while drivingI top off my spare every 6 months or so, so I went to top it off today and the Genesis donut had tread separation in multiple spots. Has never been used, still has all the nubs on it. It still had 40 psi in it, which is about right for being 6 months since summer.
I guess don't assume your "new" spare is any good, look it over good.View attachment 36001View attachment 36002View attachment 36003
