Not a numbers match. I had to replace the junk engine. I want to be able to have the correct size wheel so the speedometer reading would be more correct. I believe my spare's diameter is correct. It is just the question of the original 4-1/2" width spec vs. 5" and why my truck came with the 5" and had the color match of truck patina. I could get just a bit wider tire on that 5" too along with the original style hubcaps.
