wheels

To clarify just a little on the '05 models (at least, on mine)--I changed out the 16" to 17.5" wheels/tires. The hubs are lug-centric on my trailer, and as I mentioned above, the bolt pattern is 8 x 6.5" center-center of opposite lugs, and I think the offset is near neutral (0). I was incorrect above on 3/4ton trucks having 6 bolts--I guess the 3/4 and 1 ton trucks have 8 bolts, and the 450s have 10 bolts. So, if you have 16" wheels on both truck and trailer, all you have to do is take one truck wheel and see if it fits and clears on the trailer. For your purposes of just having another spare for the trailer, if it fits the lugs and clears the trailer, then it should work to get you to a repair facility.
Don't know where you are located, but if you need 16" spares, I have four good ones.
