I am in search of a spare tire delete kit that will cover up and plug the holes left behind when you remove the spare tire.
Let me know if you know of a solution that is available.
Thank you

Looks like a good place for a forum members badge to go, @Stu_Barnes!

I'll be the one to ask it.... Why move the spare from the super reinforced, easy to access rear door that is totally happy carrying a 35" (or potentially larger) tire
Perhaps the OP doesn't see a need for a spare wheel which might never be used other than for occasional "rotation" at the annual service to spread the wear.... :unsure: 🤷‍♂️

I removed my spare tire because I think it looks much better without it. I stored the tire in the back of the vehicle. Upon inspection, I noticed the welds attaching the hub to the rim are already rusting. I suspect this may be true for all the wheels, so I'll need to inspect them right away.

Did you ever find a kit to cover the holes left by removing the spare tire? As a short-term solution, I'm considering 3D printing something to cover them. I'd need to use some type of foam-like material on the back of the printed parts to prevent vibration from damaging the paint. I'd much rather buy a solution if available.
