My 95 Jimmy does not have a spare tire. I'd like to get one, but since it will be a full-size spare I'd rather have it be the same rim as the rest of the wheels on the vehicle.



Now I have searched on the web for HOURS AND HOURS trying to find these rims, and I just can't. They are OEM rims, yes? I presume they should be since they have a GMC emblem on them. Please tell me these aren't some rare ultra-expensive wheels that are going for $300 each or something.

Ebay should be in your quest.

Yeah, eBay, the junk yard, or craigslist are about the best places. You might be able to score a cheap set on craigslist. Just check it often.

Will do; but if it takes too long or they end up being too expensive I'll probably just give it up - I really need to buy a spare tire before I really need to buy a spare tire.

While it seemed not too many people were interested in them, I figure I'd throw this out there anyway. I found an online store that sells this rim at a price typical for new wheels, if you can't find them on eBay or Craigslist (like I haven't been able to). The reason they were so "hard to find" for OEM wheels is that they're OEM for 1st Gen Jimmys, not 2nd Gen. C'est la vie.
