I think they are called Zu alloys. If your luckily enough to find some in stock, I would buy it straight away.

What happened to the spare. Really nice wheel and tyre combo and will likely cost quite a bit to hang as jewellery on the back.

Iv only just got the truck so I’m not sure what happened to the spare, it hasn’t got a mount either. Would you use a standard mount or are
You better off with a swinging mount?

I used to have a spare mounted on the back door and it’s wrecked it tbh. Get a swing away mount if you feel you need a wheel there. I have a brand new wheel and tyre degrading in the uv light. It’s a lot of money for what is a cosmetic wheel so maybe get a cheap steely just in case you get a flat. Either way, get a swing away carrier

This is what I fitted to my heap if that helps. Been on about 2 years and is in great condition, no rust etc and went on dead easy.

The only down side being you have to line the door up with the wheel carrier when opening and closing.

That set up was too heavy for the door, miracle it never ripped the back off
Ours, same wheel with big tyre is on the rear door and i dont like it every time i open the door.
Where did that come from? looks good. Its connected to the door but supported from the back correct?

yeah so there is a plate and tube on the door but the swing away is mounted to the chassis. The swing away has a cylindrical bit that slides in and creates a solid attachment. Just a pain that you have to open the door to swing the wheel away I guess. I bought it if the Bay for £120.
