Spare tire whoop weights

Any else see this going around. They added to 45 lbs weights to a wheel spacer and bolted them inside the spare tire rim.
Only reason my kid runs two spares is for the weight with the new Link Killer kit.
Might have to do this. One spare with the weight of 2 spares.

I had some old lifting weights under my spare on my old powerwagon years ago lol it actually helped. I think i had 60 lbs back there. This is a cool idea.

Do you drill the bolt pattern in to the weight?

Not mine. Something I saw on Facebook. But I assume they drilled it out for it.
My kid is going to try and find some weights this weekend.
Unfortunately he still has 15 inch wheels. So the heaviest weight he can get to fit inside a 15 inch wheel is a 35 lbs weight.
The 45 lbs weights are 16 inches in diameter. 35 lbs weights are 14 inches diameter.

Get a flat and a workout in at the same time, hell yea. Cool idea haha the weight for sure helps, good solution for if you still have a spare in the bed opposed to putting a thick piece of chromoly in a back half

Thats pretty smart, I would like more weight. I ended up putting a water tank in the spare tire location of my raptor to add weight for the leafs. Its like 120 lbs, plus its nice to have emergency water on board.

PRP (I think) makes a round toolbag designed to fit in inside of spare tires. Seems like a better use of space
