Dodge Ram 1500 Spare Tire

The Dodge Ram 1500 includes a spare tire as a safety feature in case of a blowout, puncture, or other emergency tire situations. The spare tire resides underneath the bed of the truck for easy access, and typically comes in the same size as the full-size tires on the truck (all-terrain tires, up to 275/60R20 in size), allowing the driver to effectively replace a damaged tire and continue driving without significantly impacting the truck's performance. It's crucial, however, to consider that this tire is really only meant to serve as a temporary solution; prolonged use of the spare tire, especially at high speeds or over long distances, may lead to reduced handling and potential danger, making it essential to have the original tire repaired or replaced as soon as feasible.

Dodge Ram 1500 models manufactured from 1994 to 2010 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 29.3" to 33", allowing the use of a temporary spare tire with a near same diameter as the OEM tire. Tire diameter and wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Dodge Ram 1500 years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Dodge Ram 1500 vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 28.4" to 34". Some Ram 1500 models may require the use of a traditional full-size tire as a spare.
