Spare tire for Escort Trailer

[sweats]

I have a single axle Escort Trailer with a Goodyear tire size of 8.75-16.5LT, Load Range E in a 6 lug pattern. I have spent the last 2 hours on the internet looking for a spare tire and a trailer jack. We tow 45 miles each way to fish and don't want to get caught with a flat tire and no spare.

So sweats, did you find what you needed? I haven't seen a 8.75-16.5 in a long time. Thats heavy duty. I carry a hydraulic bottle jack. They're fairly cheap.

No I didn't find what I needed. I just bought the boat and trailer new, and wanted to see if I could find a good deal on a spare tire/wheel. I guess I will go back to the dealer and give him more of my money. I will look at Wal-Mart and the discount auto parts dealers to see if I can find a bottle jack. It is small and will fit in a compartment in my truck. Thanks

Norman,<br />Good idea I didn't think about. I will start looking for that used tire and rim just as a spare. Thanks.
