So this almost ruined tomorrow’s hunt. I hit a screwdriver on rt 80 in NJ the tire is not patchable. I called 15 different places and no one could find my tire. Which is crazy because it was the tire that came on my 2019 ram. I didn’t have a full size spare only a donut and didn’t want to drive to camp and back on it. I just bit the bullet and bought 4 new tires. Getting installed at 8 tomorrow and I’ll still get in the afternoon hunt.

I thought about it but that think looked abused when I pulled it down from under the truck. I’ve never seen a ram not come with a full size spare im kind of confused

You are replacing all 4 tires on a 2019 vehicle??  Did you get a second opinion on repairing that tire?   These guys want to sell tires, so they will tell you it can't be fixed even if it CAN be fixed.

Yea I had 3 different people who told me it couldn’t be fixed. I happened to pull over right in front of a body shop when I got the flat. The nice man who came out with his hydraulic jack and changed my tire for free even told me it couldn’t be fixed. It was a huge slit. I called 4 tire shops and 3 dealerships and they all told me over a week to get the tire and even that was a maybe.

With all the money these car manufacturers are charging for vehicles now and you can’t get a full size spare? Someone call trump and get this fixed ASAP!

Most cars don't even have donuts. They have Run Flat tires.

I just checked it, and my 19 Ram also has a donut for  spare..That SUCKS  !!   Both my previous Rams had real tires...
I'm going out in the garden and eat worms... Cheap bastards...

Yea I have to say that really pissed me off, I have been a ram owner for years and I was truly upset to see that for the first time. Did you also notice that the stock tires on your ram are some cheap Korean crap
