Spare Tire Recommendation for Off-Road 235/75R15 2023 Rove Lite Tires

Question:

Looking to purchase a spare tire set for my travel trailer. It is a 2023 Rove Lite by Tlrv. It has the off-road package tires on it now. St235/75r15 111/106m 6 PR load range C, tubeless steel belted. The tire brand are Apex Rainier St, with aluminum sendel wheels. I dont know the bolt pattern. What options do I have as far as sizes? i.e. can I go with a narrower tire to save on weight and space?

According to my research your 2023 Rove Lite has a 5-bolt pattern so the best spare tire option comes from Westlake:

- Westlake ST235/75R15 Radial Tire w 15" Phoenix Aluminum Wheel # LH52FR

All of the specs match with what you have but the wheel may not be an exact match for what you have, and while this isn't an off-road tire it does have a much more aggressive tread than your typical trailer tire. If you really want that to match just shoot me a photo of your current Sendel wheel and I can let you know what you need!

You want your spare tire to have the same size and specs as your current trailer tires otherwise it can cause uneven tread wear and poor trailer tracking if you have different tire sizes and sometimes even load ranges.
