Spare Tire Matching Original Equipped Tire And
Wheel — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a spare tire and
wheel equivalent in look and function to the original
equipment tire and wheel found on the front or rear
120
axle of your vehicle.This spare tire may be used in the
tire rotation for your vehicle. If your vehicle has this
option, refer to an authorized tire dealer for the
recommended tire rotation pattern.
Compact Spare Tire — If Equipped
The compact spare is for temporary emergency use
only. You can identify if your vehicle is equipped with
a compact spare by looking at the spare tire descrip-
tion on the Tire and Loading Information Placard
located on the driver's side door opening or on the
sidewall of the tire. Compact spare tire descriptions
begin with the letter "T" or "S" preceding the size
designation. Example: T145/80D18 103M.
T, S = Temporary Spare Tire
Since this tire has limited tread life, the original
equipment tire should be repaired (or replaced) and
reinstalled on your vehicle at the first opportunity.
Do not install a wheel cover or attempt to mount a
conventional tire on the compact spare wheel, since
the wheel is designed specifically for the compact
spare tire. Do not install more than one compact
spare tire and wheel on the vehicle at any given time.
WARNING!
Compact and collapsible spares are for tempo-
rary emergency use only. With these spares, do
not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h). Tempo-
rary use spares have limited tread life. When the
tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the
temporary use spare tire needs to be replaced.
Be sure to follow the warnings, which apply to
your spare. Failure to do so could result in spare
tire failure and loss of vehicle control.
Collapsible Spare Tire — If Equipped
The collapsible spare is for temporary emergency
use only. You can identify if your vehicle is equipped
with a collapsible spare by looking at the spare tire
description on the Tire and Loading Information
Placard located on the driver's side door opening or
on the sidewall of the tire.
Collapsible spare tire description example:

equipment tire should be repaired (or replaced) and
reinstalled on your vehicle at the first opportunity.
