2022 Volkswagen Taos Spare Tire
The Volkswagen Taos comes equipped with a compact spare tire, also known as a "donut" tire, which is stored under the floor of the vehicle's trunk, in the spare tire well. This tire is designed as a temporary solution for a flat tire, allowing drivers to reach the nearest service station or garage safely. It's smaller in size than the standard Taos tires, which are 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels. The exact dimensions of the Volkswagen Taos spare tire can usually be found in the vehicle's owner manual, however, it's typically sized to fit a 16-inch wheel. If the car doesn't include a spare tire, there may be a tire repair kit or a tire sealant and inflator kit as a substitute, but this depends on the specific model and the included features.
2022 Volkswagen Taos comes with 5 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 Volkswagen dealership to confirm the correct 2022 Volkswagen Taos spare tire size.
