Ford F-150 Spare Tire

The Ford F-150, a popular full-sized pickup truck, comes equipped with a spare tire to ensure drivers can handle flat tire scenarios without being stranded. This spare tire is conveniently located beneath the bed of the truck, secured in a mount specifically designed to hold it securely and, at the same time, making it readily available when needed. The exact type and size of the spare tire can vary based on the specific model of the Ford F-150. Generally, the spare tire is a full-size non-matching tire, which means it isn't identical to the regular use tires but is of like size, such as LT245/70R17 for specific models. Some other models, especially the older ones, might have compact temporary (T-type/Doughnut) spare tires. It's crucial to note that if this temporary compact type is provided, it should only be used as a short-term solution due to its significantly smaller size and its limitation on speed and distance the vehicle can cover safely.

Ford F-150 models manufactured from 1990 to 2025 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 27.7" to 37", 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 Ford F-150 years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Ford F-150 vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 26.9" to 38.1". Some F-150 models may require the use of a traditional full-size tire as a spare. To ensure safe temporary mobility in case of a road emergency, always refer to the vehicle owner's manual for the correct Ford F-150 spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
