Estates BP Report post Posted July 23, 2013 Well, I think I may have made a big mistake. I too am looking for a spare tire option for my 2013 FFH with the 18 inch wheel option. I Ordered the rim from Ford and it should be here on Friday. The jack off of ebay arrived today as did the spare tire. I could not find a Continental tire, and I didn't want to order a spare on ebay that was already 7 or 8 years old. Instead I ordered a Bridgestone T135/90D16 from Tire rack. Obviously I have not mounted it yet, but as I stand it up next to my Goodyear LS-2 18 wheels, it is 1.5 inches shorter. I doubt that after mounting it will "grow" at least 1 inch. Is there that much difference between the Continental and the Bridgestone? This simple project is getting more complicated than it should be. Help!

jeff_h Report post Posted July 23, 2013 The wheel and the tire are both 16", right? Sure it's going to be pretty awkward if it needs to be used (personally I like the comment someone else made, if needed move a good tire to the front and this dinky one on the back), it's only designed to be a temp thing for a short distance and just keep you from being stuck on the side of the road, right? 1 corncobs reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
