Will a 315/70/17 fit for the spare?

You know, even though I've order the '04 Ram, I never did bother to check the spare. I figured it would come with something even though I didn't order the full size spare. Now what I'm trying to figure out is what the largest spare that will fit, where ever (I guess under the bed??) factory spare is located. Has anyone got the 315 to fit, or do I need to look at something smaller?

TIA

Yes, a 315 will fit as a spare. I have a 5" exhaust which comes really close (1/2&quot to touching it, but other than that it fits fine. Congrats on the new truck! Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine.

BigBlue,

Thanks for the info. Was the spare rim the same size or was it something off the wall? I'm wondering because I didn't order the full size spare. I don't understand why one would need to order a full size spare, as I can't imagine what a donut spare would look like.

It is a full size spare. I don't think that is even a option. The rim is just a plain steel one, but the tire is exactly the same as the others on your truck.
