Hi all.
Random one, I've just looked under the caravan and noticed the spare is not there.
Im just wondering if anyone knows of any place to get a cheap basic spare wheel. I would put a tyre on myself anyway so can just be the steel wheel.
We have a Bailey Pageant S5 provance.

Thanks all.

Probably the best bet is a caravan breakers. I'm sure an online search of your area would turn one up. I know of a good one but it is in southern Essex, and I'm sure there must be many more.

the last caravan i bought had a spare wheel fitted with a new tyre,few months later had a puncture, went to use spare and the spare wouldn't fit over the hub,the wheel itself looked the same but on checking the hole in wheel was a few millimetres too small,so it might be better to order one off dealer rather than taking chance on getting wrong size,if you look on wheel itself there should be a number stamped on it,the spare i had was one diget out although the wheel was the same size.

That sort of thing is why it is a good idea to rehearse changing a wheel (caravan and car) on the driveway at home. It can expose all sorts of problems that you don't want to discover out on the road.

Try your local caravan shop that also sells caravans on site. My local one sells things like that in the shop.

Old van with a good awning or spare wheel, they sell them on their own.

local farm ( storage site ) - had several spare wheels, gas bottles, batteries and toilet cassettes ( !!! ) stolen a few years back.....I can understand the other items but a used toilet cassette ???

When you get a new wheel ....fit a lock to it and lock it to the chassis when in storage or put it inside the van.
