2012 TMC Freedom Elite 26E. SPARE WHEEL And TIRE

I recently bought my 2012 TMC Freedom Elite on the Ford E450 Dually Chasis. The RV did not have a spare tire when I got it. I need to know if the front and rear wheels are different or are they all universally interchangeable? I do know that the tires are all universally interchangeable. If the forward and rear wheels are in fact different, do I need 1 or 2 spares in my trunk in the event of a flat tire? Any information on the subject will be helpful. Thanks

Unless someone has previously changed them out. They are all the same size wise. Can't vouch for manufacturer.
When I had mine checked they were mixed so the first year I did 2 front tires. Then rotated them back and bought 2 new front tires again the next year. Now all 6 are the same with a good spare.

Welcome to the forum!

The rear wheels are the same as the fronts. Our Vegas also has no spare, like many of the cars sold today. My coach will remain spareless, my personal preference. Opinions on spares vary. This has been thoroughly discussed here several times. Do a search for "spare tire" and you'll see a variety of viewpoints.
