I35... factory spare size?

My '02 I35 included a full size chrome spare, which I sold... and I need to replace it.

Does anyone know the size of the factory spare on an I35 Sport? Thanks!

What do you mean? It should have been identical to all the other wheels/tires.

225/50/17, 17x7, 45mm offset

Truthfully though, any 16" or larger wheel with the correct bolt pattern, offset, and hub circle will work just fine as a spare.

Meta,

I was under the impression that a full size spare was an option... I thought maybe the standard spare was some type of donut of a small size.

I guess I'll just pickup a cheap 16" Maxima wheel with a decent tire and use that as a spare.

I think all I35s came with matching full-size spares. Or at least mine is.

But yeah, look for a cheap 16" wheel or something. 16" 300zx wheels, 16" 240SX SE wheels, G35, Maxima, Altima, etc. 17" wheels will all work.

Try craigslist, I sure someone will sell a 16 or 17 cheap, the 2003 and up accord 16 steel also fit. I think the GM also work. But you CANNOT use a space saver (donut) tire. Don't waste your money on getting a perfect match unless you are going to include it in use.

I think that all I35's with the Sport Package came with the full size spare. I do remember seeing a non-sport model that had a donut for a spare.
