Any negatives to removing the spare under the bed?

[Keith88]

Just go buy a new cheap tire for the spare.

Solid idea. I found a "name brand" General for less than $100!

Spends 90K on a truck. Can't afford a matching spare tire.

Seems legit

That's a bold assumption of yours @Donmatteo; I don't recall posting anything about affordability?

That's fair. However you said you would rather remove the spare than keep the 35 tire (without saying if you would/could replace the tire), buy a 37 tire, or buy a matching wheel/tire for the R wheels.

The stupid / cheap option is removal all together

I have a 37" under the bed as my spare to match what is on the truck, should be enough room

cars have been coming with donut tires that don’t match what is on the vehicle for decades. nothing wrong with a 35” spare to get you home.

The 37 is 6.3 inches more circumference than the 35. So one tire will be slipping or the differential will be slipping the whole time it’s on there.
If you were in that situation, put the smaller tire on the front and stay in 2 wheel drive.
