Your Bailey dealer will stock spare rims, ours has them in the shop.

My experience of 2 dealers, one in Birmingham and 1 in Cornwall is tht they will charge you the earth for a spare. I would enquire with the dealer first but you can get 185/75 R14C with a higher load index of 102 (rather than 96) online for about £50. The 185 is a perfectly good replacement for your 195. The cheapest the dealer would replace them for was £98. Have a look here

185/75 R14

Sorry for the dimwit question, but this would work perfectly with a 195 then?

Firstly if you need a wheel then a caravan dealer or caravan scrap yard is the place to go. You'd be very lucky to find a car wheel the correct size and it might not be structurally strong enough for the caravan.

Not many of us live near a scrap yard so the dealer is probably the best option. I paid around £25 for the last rim I bought but that is a few years ago.

If you're tempted to upgrade tyres (which is a very good idea) don't forget to renew both caravan tyres at the same time. It will be illegal to use your spare if it's not identical size and load index etc to the normal tyre

If you need a 4 stud 14 wheel rim, no tyre, I have a couple for sale at £10 each.

Sorry read your thread and thought it said tyre but you did ask for a replacement wheel. As Thwack said the first port of call should be the dealer. I am after replacement tyres and have found the Goodyear Cargos to be far cheaper than the tyres the dealer want s to fit and they have a better load rating.

The quality of the tyres grip on the road is not as critical as the cars.

I always buy budget tyres but with a higher load index than those fitted by the caravan manufacturers.

I had 3 new 185/75's fitted for £120 2 years ago. I think the load index was 99
