Subaru Legacy Spare Tire

The Subaru Legacy, like many vehicles, comes equipped with a spare tire as a standard feature to manage emergencies on the road. The spare tire type for most Subaru Legacies is known as a 'temporary spare,' often referred to as a 'donut' due to its smaller, thinner appearance compared to regular tires. It's designed to get you to the nearest garage or tire shop and should not be driven at high speed or long distances. The size may vary according to the different models of Subaru Legacy, but for many models, the spare tire size is T135/80D16 101M. However, it's always essential to consult the vehicle's handbook or a professional to make sure you have the correct replacement tire to fit your Subaru Legacy.

Subaru Legacy models manufactured from 1990 to 2025 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 23.7" to 26.9", 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 Subaru Legacy years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Subaru Legacy vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 23" to 27.7". Some Legacy 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 Subaru Legacy spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
