Trailer spares direct Paisley drive at Lawnton. That's where I got mine. there is a tyre shop 3 shops up from them that fitted a tyre on the rim as I waited.

almost any boat place will have spare wheels, complete with a rubbish Chinese tyre, but they are OK as a spare, might pay to get the multi fit job, that fits both Ford and Holden, that way, you might be able to help out someone in trouble on the highway!

Most boat shops will charge around $170-$190 for a complete 13" galvanised multi fit (Holden and Ford together) spare wheel (with tyre of course), you can get a bit cheaper by shopping around for a rim, then a tyre, but maybe, in the end, it is just easier to wander in, pay your money and leave.

+ 1, carry quite a wide range and their prices seem to be reasonably competive (No asscoiation)

Stupid question.Whats the difference between the Holden and Ford rim? How do you know which rim you have? This is a 5 stud 13 rim and if I take a measurement on the studs its 4.5in

Hi Meg-a,
Don't know the stud diameter in inches but, Falcon hubs use 1/2" UNF studs at approx 68mm centres stud to stud and early Holden HT use 7/16" UNF studs at about 64mm centres stud to stud.
