Grinding a couple of millimeters off isn't that big of a deal EXCEPT, I cannot bring my coach into my community so I would have to do that grinding at the storage facility. Is there a wheel that is a direct replacement, without any grinding? I am going to check out Ebay. Thanks!
Yeah I feel your pain. Luckly I can leave my RV on my driveway for 3 days straight before I get nasty emails from my POA. Surely you can work on it for two hours and then take it back to the storage facilty?

I would get an OEM Ford rim from Ebay. THe Factory rim was iehter $250 or $225.00 locally for me.

You can always take a OEM tire off the rear, install the aftermarket rim with a new tire on the outside and then you have a OEM spare that will work on the front as well. Thats what I did.
