Toyota MR2 Spare Tire
The Toyota MR2, a popular sports car manufactured by the Japanese automobile giant Toyota, comes equipped with a compact temporary spare tire, also known as a “donut” spare, meant for short-term use when one of the regular tires gets a flat. The size of the spare tire can vary according to the model of the MR2, but commonly it can be "P185/60R14 82S", which is smaller in size than the regular tire, to take up less storage space in the trunk. However, Toyota strongly recommends replacing the compact spare tire with a regular-sized tire as soon as possible, as the spare tires are designed for temporary, limited use and lower speed only. The compact spare tire lacks the same level of traction, handling capabilities and have less tread, which can affect a car's stability when driven at higher speeds.
Toyota MR2 models manufactured from 1991 to 1995 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 23.2" to 23.4", 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 Toyota MR2 years and trims.
Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Toyota MR2 vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 22.5" to 24.1". Some MR2 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 Toyota MR2 spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
