Spare Wheel For Xtr

[Andy_R]

Hi, excuse the dumb question! I have 2008 RAV4 XTR with no spare wheel. I would like to buy a steel spare, to avoid any dodgy puncture moments while caravanning abroad. What should I buy and where can I get one? My Toyota dealer wanted to sell me an alloy at several hundred pounds. Surely there must be a cheap alternative that can be used? Thanks.

Hi Andy,

Welcome to the club.

You might want to look at this:LINK

Might be worth contacting Kingo with the part number to see if he can do a keener price as it seems to be genuine Toyota. The one illustrated shows only four fixing holes but they say it comes with five bolts.

Certainly the first steel wheel I have seen specifically for the 4.3 RAV with no spare wheel.

Hi mate

I got my spare from this place. http://www.4x4tyres.com/

Its a nice looking alloy wheel, very similar to the Toyota ones that are on. Price fitted with a decent tyre inc delivery and wheel nuts was £144. I bought a bag to pop it in and its strapped in the boot. Perfect fit and perfect for a spare. they were very helpful too. Hope that helps

hi mate

its a 16x7 Delta wheel, fitted with a 225/70/16 Sigma Stampede tyre. if you go on the site their are pics of the wheel. Mine is a T180 with 18 inch rimes but the size of this spare with that tyre makes it almost exactly the same size as the Toyota wheel and tyre so its just thejob for a spare

all best
