    Default Spare tire location.

    My dealer text me this morning and our new sl550 just arrived. On reviewing the photo on the hauler it looks like the spare tire is underneath the trailer vs on the side. I know on the build we had added the side mount spare. I haven’t talked to them about this yet, just curios what everyone’s opinion is. I thought I liked the look of the side mount better, but now I almost think the under mount looks cleaner? Thoughts ?

    If you have nice 18’s, most would use a side mount to “show it”.

    Underneath mounts are more $$$ and I guess less show.

    Matter of preference.

    Actually never seen an under mount in the wild.

    I agree with that. I did get the 18s with the flake accents. Looking back on Supra’s site the under mount is about $250 more as well. I’ll be interested to see what they have to say when I grab it tomorrow.

    I will try and get some pictures uploaded. Quick question for you. Does your new sl triple axle trailer have a 2” or 2-5/16 ball. My 2020 sl tandem axle was a 2” but thinking maybe this is different on the new triple?

    Interesting that they removed wheels on both Tri axle trailers.
