2003 Saturn Vue Spare Tire

The Saturn Vue is equipped with a spare tire to cater to unexpected emergencies of a flat or blown-out tire. This tire, often referred to as a "donut" because of its smaller and thinner appearance compared to regular-sized tires, is stored in the rear compartment of the vehicle. It's intended for temporary use and should be replaced with a regular-sized tire as soon as possible. The exact size of the spare tire can vary depending upon the year and model of the Saturn Vue. Generally, it uses a smaller tire size, such as a T155/90D16 for a 2004 model, which indicates a temporary tire with a section width of 155mm, an aspect ratio of 90%, a construction type of "D" (Diagonal), and a wheel diameter of 16 inches. However, owners should always check their user manual or the label on the spare tire for the correct type and size specific to their Saturn Vue model.

2003 Saturn Vue comes with 2 OEM tire size options. Select the original equipment the tire size installed on your vehicle to see all spare tires that have roughly the same tire diameter and can be used as a temporary replacement in the event of a flat tire. Remember that load carrying capacity of the spare tire must be the same or higher than the load carrying capacity of the original equipment tires in order to safely support the weight of your vehicle. Refer to vehicle owner's manual or contact Saturn dealership to confirm the correct 2003 Saturn Vue spare tire size.
