Spare Tire

[edlchiang62]

I was really happy with the spare tire kit I bought from Modern Spare for my Buick Regal, so I am very interested in this option for my Integra.

When you try to put in under the hatch floor, would you be willing to post two pictures here, one showing what is seen in the spare tire well with the tire and other gear in place when the hatch floor is up, and a second pic showing the hatch floor down in its normal place?

I will when I come back into town on Monday

Has anyone looked into buying a spare? its crazy that the space is there, but they don't include it...
Was thinking of getting one from a salvage yard. I'm would think one from a Civic would fit...

Spare tire kits are an extra item on many cars now. Same with 30K Mustangs and 90K Shelby's. My Bullitt has space for a spare but it just has a piece of foam, and a can of runflat.

Hi everyone. I have mounted the spare and the tire changing kit from my 2019 Accord under the hatch tray. Fits perfectly, all tools work as designed. there is a very slight flex to the tray, but as long as you're not putting huge weight back there it should hold up fine. Tire seems to be right size too. If you're looking for other options.

Great news. Now I can see if the salvage yards have the jack!

What size is your spare?

I'm unfortunately considering purchasing the, probably after shipping and taxes, nearly $600 spare kit posted here. Has anyone used it, are there any "reviews" out there that cover the important bits?

Will an 18" 2023 civic spare tire work okay?

I ordered a spare tire/wheel and equipment from 2023 Acura Integra Spare Tire, Light Alloy, Long-Range | Modern Spare .I ordered it on a 12/19 and it arrived Xmas eve.

this kit lists a different tire than the one I have on tire rack: T125/70R18 vs (TR)125/80R17.
I wonder if the listed bolt pattern from this kit (5×114.3MM) is correct

135/80/R17 is the spare from the accord. saw that listed on this site somewhere as ok I think. bolt pattern is the same. fits perfectly with the top kit spun around backwards

You brought up a good point. I went to my Acura dealership to install some accessories and i had the tech take off a the regular wheel /tire and install the spare wheel/tire that I got from Modern Spare.Com. The tech said he was very impressed with it and it is much better than a regular spare tire/wheel normally supplied by the auto company. So I appreciate the point you brought up and I feel better having the tech do a little test installation of the spare tire/wheel. Thanks!!

So, thanks to all the info the community has supplied, I am working on an inexpensive solution to the spare issue. It turns out, there are many cars that have the correct bolt pattern for the spare. I only have left to figure which ones have the correct bore,,,,

Thanks. There's one just like it on eBay with tools for $90.00.

I already have the tools, so I'm going to a junkyard this afternoon to see if I can get just the foam.

Thanks for the pic! Does the carpet lay flat with the tool kit top?

Gotta say I’m liking this idea of the kit from a 2019 accord over $500 on the modern spare. Have you put it on the car?

I'm wondering that too, does the rear mat lay flat with both the tire and foam tool holder?
