I am getting a set of 4 18x7.5 Jeep JK wheels for my Wk.
I want to get a matching spare tire when i buy new tires. I dont care if the spare wheel matches.
I really dont want a nice aluminum wheel under the back of my jeep in NH salty winters getting all corroded and such and i dont want to pay the high ebay or aftermarket costs for 1 matching wheel.
So my thought is, can i buy a generic, black steel wheel with the same size/bolt pattern/ offset to mount a spare on?
Just like the non match full size spare wheel that came on the WJs just in an 18" size?
I cant find a manufacturer that sells them. It would be something that people buy for snow tires and put hub caps on. like cop car wheels. I know i have seen them before, alot of volvo and bmw owners around here do that for snow tires.
Where/ what brand?
