FULL SIZE SPARES
OK, let’s play a little game. Who here on FR has the newest car with a full size spare? (Can’t be a full size truck/SUV, those vehicles are too heavy for donuts, so of course, they have full size spares).
I’ll start. My 2002 Infiniti has a full size spare on an identical-to-the-rest-of-the-other-four 18” alloy. So I have an ‘02. Anyone have a newer model?
I PUT a full sized spare in my 04 Sentra (when it was time for new tires I bought 5), the board wobbles a little but I like knowing if I get a flat I’m not on some time or speed limit.
My 2001 Chrysler 300 had a full size spare on an alloy wheel that matched the others.
2003 Ford Crown Vic w/ factory P71 police package - has full spare inside the huge trunk.
My husband has a 2008 BMW with a full size spare.
2008 Avalon Limited
My wife’s ‘86 Pontiac had a full size wheel well with a donut spare in it. I threw it away & bought a full size spare.
My 2002 minivan has the donut which is winched up underneath the floor pan. And no stow-n-go seats, I greatly prefer the removeable ones.
05 Audi A4 Avant.
Hope I never have to use it,
Cheers,
Jim
