Subaru WRX Spare Tire

The Subaru WRX typically comes with a temporary spare tire or "donut," designed for limited use until the primary tire can be repaired or replaced, and often stored beneath the floor of the vehicle's trunk. The compact size of the spare makes it more portable and convenient to carry, but it also means that it's not intended for long-term use or high-speed driving. The specific size of a Subaru WRX's spare tire can vary based on the model year and specifics of the vehicle; however, it's generally a smaller diameter than the car's regular tires. For a more precise size, it's advised to consult the vehicle's manual or contact the manufacturer or a certified Subaru dealer.

Subaru WRX models manufactured from 2015 to 2025 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 25.4" to 25.8", 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 WRX years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Subaru WRX vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 24.6" to 26.6". Some WRX 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 WRX spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
