LOL, Steve.... nope, no scratching needed. All bolts were accounted for, this one was a hitchhiker. Notice the tire you see has 52,000 miles on it so there's a lot of tread left.
Tom, thanks for the suggestion. I will not be looking for anything fancy or too expensive, so that's a good idea. I had posted in another topic, that I needed new wheels to support the heavier rear axle weight rating (was 6100lbs, now is 7000lbs). The current 17" tires (currently 6390 lbs per axle) do not have a vendor that supports the new weight rating. There is a 16" tire but a 16" will not fit my truck because of the large brake calipers), and the 18" wheel has several major tire vendors and the variety means competition keeps availability higher and the tire prices lower. These options support 7,240 lbs per axle. I am looking at the Michelin LTX A/T2.
But I still have enough tread for a while. So until I wear them down, I keep all the extra junk at home.
