Interesting that yours is painted black. Mine is just the standard steel XL rim.

That's the donut you get if you don't opt for the "full-size" spare.

But the so-called "full size" spare is not full size, or so I am told. One of the first things I plan to look at when/if my truck arrives.

Full size wheel with a smaller 215/60/17 tire. Could probably switch out to a matching 225/65/17 pretty cheap if your local tire shop has a lightly used unmatched single.

Looks Good

Thanks, can't wait to get matching window tint done next week.

So far:.
Undercoat (Carwell similar to Krown)
Mudguards (did this last night.. Fun..)
Removed spare (I have tire patch kit and inflator + roadside)

Next is rain-X windshield/windows.
Protectant spray on headlights
Dashcam

I opted for the “full size” spare so I didn’t have to worry about riding on the donut. Can I drive normally with the “full size” spare?

Should be fine as long as your taking it fairly easy. If you're doing alot of highway speeds it will probably be more noticeable. If you're towing alot a matching tire size is probably good idea too

The donut spare limits you to 50mph and the "full size" spare limits you to 70mph according to the manual.
