I have a 2006 F53 MH, Gulfstream, 22K GVWR.....It has 245/70R19.5 tires....

Planning a trip to Alaska and wanting to buy a spare wheel....They have them used on eBay but in 2 widths for my 10 lug pattern, 6 and 6.75"....

Does the F53 come standard with one width over the other ?? My MH is parked temporarily 65 miles away so I cannot go out and check..

Thanks....

Mine are 6.75", but this is a 1999 chassis.

you want the 6.75" rim width for the 245/70R19.5 tires. The 6" rim width is used with the 215 & 225/70R19.5 tires. Got the information from the Bridgestone Tire web site.

good luck

And for some reason this leaves a real small dual tire clearance too!

Definitely 6.75 for the 245 tires. They are not only wider, but have a larger offset. If you use the 6.0 rim, the duals will touch with the 245 tires. 6.0 and 215 tires are only used on the 16,000 pound chassis.
