Chevrolet K1500 Spare Tire Fitment Guide
The Chevrolet K1500 used a 6x5.5" (6x139.7 mm) bolt pattern for all models from 1988 to 1999 along with tire diameters ranging from 29.3" to 31.6" tall. Using a temporary compact spare tire with a diameter close to the standard tire has many benefits, especially for modern vehicle applications.
The tire diameter and the wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Chevrolet K1500 years and options. In this case, it's recommended to use a Full-Size tire similar to the tires currently on your vehicle as your spare. We've provided a breakdown by vehicle generation and model specifics to help you find the correct Chevrolet K1500 spare tire.
1988-1999 Chevrolet K1500 Spare Tires
This generation of the Chevrolet K1500 began in 1988 and was available through 1999. All the models for these years use the same spare tire and wheel solution.
