Arrow WTB: One Stock OEM Tire With or Without Rim

I am looking for one OEM stock 15' rim to use as a spare tire. It needs to be in good condition with a good amount of tread. And no plugs or patches. I dont really need the rim, but let me know what you have and I will make you an offer. Thanks.

sorry i can't help you out with finding a rim/tire, but maybe i can help you out with another issue: the factory tire is alot larger than the POS donut spare (duh), so it doesn't fit in the wheel well under the stock "floor"...unless you already have plans for redoing your trunk (or you're just going to keep it ghetto style), i can build you a new false floor...i recently spent about a week making a new one for my trunk to replace that little crappy cardboard thing that was originally in there...it's custom fit from front to back, side to side, and is perfectly contoured to the shape of the trunk...it's made out of Grade A plywood so it does not bend or flex at all, and it sits on 2.5" risers made out of 2x4" blocks...it is made out of 2 separate pieces that fit together seamlessly (2 pieces = don't have to unbolt sub box from rear section to access spare tire/jack, etc), and both are wrapped in high-quality black polypropylene carpeting...i also made an amp rack that is custom-fit to the area where the back seats fold down (i have pics if you want em)...anyway, if you're interested, either PM me or e-mail me at usafcushman@hotmail.com or just if you have any questions or whatever...good luck!

yes the 15" tire does fit in the trunk, I have had one in there for a yr. now. No need to redo your trunk, just flip the tire over and bolt it down. Works perfectly. You could even fit a 16-17 rim in there with no modification.

Anyway, I know someone on here has a stock 15" tire, please let me know.

ok, that's not what i meant...the tire fits fine, it's just alot wider (thicker) than the donut, and it doesn't fit under the cardboard piece that's supposed to cover it (well, it fits, but you now have a big lump in the middle)...that's why i suggested the false floor...anyway, good luck...
