Not sure, you got 17 inch rims so I'm assuming you'd be ok, beings you have 17's already on there. As far as offset, don't know but for a spare, its better than nothing. Not sure if this helps any but you needed somebody to chime in, lol..

If im understanding you correctly, you want to use a dually rim for a spare for your SRW truck?
I have never tried it, but in a pinch I guess you could bolt it up to get by for a short drive, (like the outside rear of a dually) but I dont think it would be good for the wheel bearings.

I would never put a stinking single wheel wheel on my truck. 
I think the tire would stick out to much if you tried that.

Hey Ray. I heard of people running only the inside tire on a dually, but I would think that would look wierd. I had to take my outside tires off to run on the dyno at RRE-1. I couldn't wait to get the other wheels back on. lol

I intend to put wheels from a SRW on the rear (couldn't stand it with just inside wheel on).They will still look a bit funny but will pull better than the duals in snow.As soon as snow is over the duals go back on
