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.
Saturn Vue models manufactured from 2002 to 2010 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 27.6" to 28.1", 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 Saturn Vue years and trims.
Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Saturn Vue vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 26.8" to 28.9". Some Vue 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 Saturn Vue spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
