Oldsmobile LSS Spare Tire
The Oldsmobile LSS was equipped with a spare tire as part of the standard package to ensure the driver could replace a flat or damaged tire and continue driving safely. The exact size and type of the spare tire depended on the model year of the LSS. For instance, a 1997 Oldsmobile LSS came equipped with a compact spare tire of the T125/70D15 size, which signifies its type (T for Temporary), section width (125mm), aspect ratio (70), construction (D for Diagonal), and wheel diameter (15 inches). This compact tire, designed to save weight and space, was intended for temporary, emergency use, requiring replacement or repair of the original tire as soon as possible. It is important to remember that driving on a spare tire has speed limitations, often not exceeding 50mph, due to its different construction and size compared to regular tires.
Oldsmobile LSS models manufactured from 1996 to 1999 have tires with overall diameter of 26.6", 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 Oldsmobile LSS years and trims.
Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Oldsmobile LSS vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 25.8" to 27.4". Some LSS 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 Oldsmobile LSS spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
