Chrysler PT Cruiser Spare Tire

The Chrysler PT Cruiser comes equipped with a compact spare tire, often known as a "donut" spare, designed only for temporary use to enable the vehicle to be driven to a service station or tire repair shop. The size of the PT Cruiser's spare tire can vary based on the model year, but a commonly used size is T125/70D15, which is considerably smaller than the regular tires and is not intended for long distances or high speeds. It's typically stored underneath the rear cargo area of the vehicle or sometimes externally mounted on the rear of the vehicle. It is of utmost importance that PT Cruiser owners check their specific owner's manual or consult with a Chrysler dealer or qualified tire professional for their car's precise spare tire size and type information, as well as usage guidelines.

Chrysler PT Cruiser models manufactured from 2001 to 2010 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 24.9" to 25.1", allowing the use of a temporary spare tire with a near same diameter as the OEM tire. Tire diameter and wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Chrysler PT Cruiser years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Chrysler PT Cruiser vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 24.2" to 25.9". Some PT Cruiser models may require the use of a traditional full-size tire as a spare. To ensure safe temporary mobility in case of a road emergency, always refer to the vehicle owner's manual for the correct Chrysler PT Cruiser spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
