Ti's came with a donut spare. | | | 09-11-2006, 07:01 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: Portland Or Posts: 2,666 | You can also use a full size if you carry one of the little compressors and deflate the spare before you put it under the car. Common trick on the 4x4 side when you have huge tires and still want touse the interior storage mount.
