Need spare hub and tire.

Late last season we purchased our first rv and had it out once...now we are getting ready for a full camping season however our 2011 V-Lite did not come with a spare tire, or even a mount for a tire. I have found a bumper mount spare tire carrier. I also need to get a rim and a tire, the tire size is 225/75R15. I found a new tire mounted on an RV rim on eBay. My question is about the bolt pattern - is the V-Lite wheel, is there a standard and if so is it's rim that standard?

I suggest getting tire and rim at Tractor Supply... look for them to go on sale to get the best price, or etrailer dot com...

READ this article and measure your current lugs...

Go to a local store and work with them (Tractor Supply/local Tire store, RV parts store, ect) and get a rim (does not have to match your 'regular rims) and spare tire (that is the same size and go up one range size) ie. I changed all of my tires from a D range to an E range. If you have any 'issues', it is better to handle it local than e-bay. you may 'think' that you 'saved' a few dollars from 'e-bay-, but in the long run... you will not. Put a High Pressure or steel valve stem on the rim. Some tire places do not have the steel valve stems, but all seem to have High Pressure stems.
