Volkswagen Atlas Spare Tire

The Volkswagen Atlas comes equipped with a compact temporary spare tire, also referred to as a "donut" spare. This type of spare tire is smaller than a full-size tire and designed to be used temporarily, until you're able to replace the damaged tire. The objective is to save space and lower the vehicle weight, thus promoting fuel efficiency. The spare tire found under the floor of the trunk in the Volkswagen Atlas is typically of size T165/90D18 104M, depending on the model. However, it is advised to always check your specific vehicle's manual for the exact type and size of the spare tire, since they can sometimes have different specifications based on factors like the Atlas's trim level or the year it was manufactured.

Volkswagen Atlas models manufactured from 2018 to 2025 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 29.6" to 30.4", 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 Volkswagen Atlas years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Volkswagen Atlas vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 28.7" to 31.3". Some Atlas 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 Volkswagen Atlas spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
