2006 Dodge Dakota Spare Tire
The Dodge Dakota is equipped with a spare tire for emergency use, typically tucked away under the back of the vehicle's body or nestled within the trunk area. Its primary function is to replace any tire that gets damaged while driving, allowing the driver to reach a safe destination or a nearby automobile repair shop without stranding on the road. The spare tire type for most Dodge Dakota models is a compact, temporary spare, often referred to as a "donut", which is not intended for prolonged use due to its size and construction. In terms of size, the spare tire usually varies with the make, model, and year of the Dodge Dakota. However, it is generally smaller than the regular tires on the vehicle, with common sizes of 215/75R15 for older models and 265/70R16 for newer ones, both aimed to fit within tight storage spaces while offering reasonable safety and mobility in an unexpected tire failure scenario.
2006 Dodge Dakota comes with 5 OEM tire size options. Select the original equipment the tire size installed on your vehicle to see all spare tires that have roughly the same tire diameter and can be used as a temporary replacement in the event of a flat tire. Remember that load carrying capacity of the spare tire must be the same or higher than the load carrying capacity of the original equipment tires in order to safely support the weight of your vehicle. Refer to vehicle owner's manual or contact Dodge dealership to confirm the correct 2006 Dodge Dakota spare tire size.
