I've has a ton of emails come in lately about the RAV4 and my guess that a full-size spare might fit. So what did we do? We went out, bought a wheel, had a tire put on it, and jammed it in the cargo area to see if it fits. Right Lane Hog: Alex, With each episode, the tale of the RAV4 Hybrid gets more intriguing. When does the hitch go on? What about the wiring harness? Will you need two videos to cover the towing upgrade? #Suspense Alex and his team are truly #LivingTheRAV4HybridDream

Good job, Alex. Since the tire is flipped over, I added a valve stem extension on to it, so I did not have to take the tire out to test it or add air. They do go flat, so I check mine when I check the running tire pressures. Unlike GM, toyota does not give you individual tire pressure readings. Too bad. I find it a big safety feature. I have added full size tires to my vehicles when possible. WILL NOT BUY a vehicle that does not have some sort of spare tire. The inflation kit they provide on some models, are dangerous and about worthless, to say the least. Some tire shops will not work on a tire that has that tire inflation junk sprayed inside of it.

I'm always surprised when people don't care (or don't know) that their vehicle doesn't have a spare tire, even a space saver. That tells me that they've never had a tire shred at highway speeds after a flat. Great work Alex - the fact that the RAV4 can fit a full size spare puts it on my short list.

I was trying to explain this to a friend a dealer and they didnt get it, but as Im buying a new car I want a full-size spare wheel/tire. If Im driving between Toronto and Vancouver I dont want to be in Saskatchewan and not be able to get anywhere within the range of a FaF or donut.

last time i had a full size oem spare rim/time combo was when i had my e46, been runflats ever since but i wish they had a full size spare even tho they claim its not needed i had the sidewalls rip on my e90 enough times to switch to non-runflats. i'm on a g01 and i wish i had a spare

And I thought I was being prudent when I bought a donut spare off Amazon for 100 for my 2013 Kia optima to replace the ridiculous fix a flat kit kia included. For 80 more I probably could have added a full size spare which I could have easily resold when I sold the car.

Full size spare tire and rim for the win A flat tire kit will never give you the same peace of mind as having an actual full size spare tire. There are things that you can't be cheap with like buying a temporary spare tire rather than a full size.

Volvo is not only only owned by a Chinese company, but sold widely across China and the rest of the world. Spare tire presence has nothing to do with your country. It is solely an economical/design preference of the manufacturer.

This isnt something I thought about but it definitely makes sense. I have a 2017 RAV4 XLE and it has the same trunk from the looks of it. Definitely gonna check this out. Thanks Alex

Great video I find it ridiculous that most new bmws offer a spare tire kit for 150 and lose volume in the trunk. A lot of car makes going away from spare tires including Acura.
