Is the spare the same for 1999,2000,2001 ? thanks shawn
Does anybody know if a bigger tire can go on the spare rim to match the size of original 18" rim tires so not to have the problem with the TOD when a flat occurs and you have to use the spare.
Otto, don't think it's a problem with fitting a different size tire on the rim, but fitting a different size tire in the rear door?
shawn, i dont know for sure, i have an 01 and my spare is a T165/90/D17 on a bright yellow 17x4 rim w/ 38mm offset.. i would guess the '00s are the same, anyone have a 99 they can read the info from?
hope that helps
Thanks I can check mine on sunday. shawnQuote:

...right?
Spare should always go on the rear. :)
DO NOT put the spare tire on the rear of the VX.. thats an excellent way to screw up your TOD read the owners manual or the tire.. both clearly state it should be on the FRONT of the vehicle
If you put it on the rear you will screw up the rear axle. The spare goes on the front only. shawnQuote:

Now, this brings up yet another question. Okay, it's a given, the spare always go's on the front. But what about us that are not running the standard OEM tire as in 245/60/18 on the 00/01's.
You need a full size spare.
might as well take our your stock spare to save weight since its about useless w/ bigger tires
