I have a 2001 Ranger Edge 4WD with 245/75R16 tires. I installed a class 3 hitch some time back and I've been unable to get the spare back up into the holder. It's too "fat" and won't go past the hitch. I've looked into getting a temporary spare but I'm having trouble finding a tire and wheel that is the right size and has the correct lug pattern Closest I've come is a 175/90r18 off an Infiniti. It has the correct bolt pattern but the hub center bore is too small. Has anyone else had a problem like this and was able to solve it? I want the spare out of the bed of my truck.
