The dimension of the Buick Encore's spare tire may differ depending on the year and model of the vehicle, but the typical size is generally around T125/70D16. While these spare tires are designed to get you to the nearest service station safely, they are not intended for extended use due to their smaller stature and limited durability, with a recommended maximum speed of 50 mph and a range of approximately 50 to 70 miles. Further, it should be noted that the spare tire is stored in the trunk of the vehicle, under the flooring, to optimize space utilization.
