Anyone using donut spares?

That’s what I was looking at spares from to find the 145/80-18 option.

72blunblu, You said the spare tire well won’t fit a 27” donut spare? Man this is the part I wish I could try before I buy one... really like what I found, even thought about getting the lug wrench and jack too so I would have all those too.

Anyone have any pics showing their donuts in mock up while making sure your backup plan fit the car?

Nope, nothing much taller than 26” will fit in the well. Just measure the diameter of the well if you want, it’s not 27”. Just go about half way down the wall and run a tape measure. I can double check the spare I have, but I’m almost positive it’s a 145/80/17, which makes it like 26.1” tall. It basically wedges into the well. It made light contact all the way around the inner wall of the tire well. It sat all the way down, but it was definitely the tallest tire that would.
