Good point, mine came with RSAs, 245/45/20.

I don't expect rear end damage in either case tho, unless used too long or driven "hard" (course, how hard could you push a 145/80).

Anyone know of a good source to buy the 300c spare tire kit including jack and mounting hardware? I would search the junkyards locally but not enough time... I'd rather try to buy a complete set with everything I need from a reliable source. I figure this solution is better than what came with the car to begin with. Thanks.

I bought mine at the local dealer.

I got my rim and TP sensor here Mopar, Chrysler and Jeep Auto Parts - Buy Chrysler Car Parts and Accessories Online
and then my tire from the Goodyear dealer!
Jack came from Sears! 2 1/4 ton in plastic case.

JEEZ... just buy a 18 inch regular spare setup. it WILL FIT ofer the REAR BREMBO"S........

if you have a flat on the front, just move a rear wheel to the fromt and put your spare on the rear.... PROBLEM SOLVED. No full size needed. no un nessacary cutting of your trunk well for hundreds of dollars.... no need for AAA who will only screw up your SRT by towing it......

I don't need a SRT engineer to tell me how to get a spare to work...

And I don't need a rocket scientist to tell me that if I have a full size spare then I don't have to be out in the rain ,snow, dangerous areas, or the hassle of switching a tire around on a car for a longer period of time than necessary. I guess it's up to the individual! You decide!

I agree.
