Hi,
This is going to be the first of many posts after having been a lurker for some time. Perhaps I am overthinking some of my planning but I am sure the community here will not be shy to correct me...
We are just planning our Overland Truck which we are trying to keep under 7.5t. I would like to carry 2 spares but to keep the weight down I was planning on just carrying two 365/80 R20 tyres without the wheels?
Is this a sensible route and if so how would you suggest I mount the tyres to the rear of the cabin shell without the wheel to bolt onto a carrier? Ideally the solution should also provide some hoist to assist lifting.
Also for this solution to work I will need a good tyre inflation solution. Is it ok to use the truck air or should I source an additional compressor (any recommendations).
Thanks in advance for any solutions and advise.
