Where to find/order the spare tire for a car with 18" tires

Recommended Posts

I know the topic of which wheel and tire to use has been covered thoroughly.

 

My intent is to break out into an easy to find new topic, just for finding the 135/90R-16 Continental CST17 compact spare tire (CST).

 

I have gotten great advice on other threads, and what I found right now is that the wheel may be ordered through Ford, with good availability.

 

The tire though is hard to find, either through Ford, a Conti dealer, or even Ebay (which may be used/old stock)

 

I went to my Nissan dealer, after learning that the Nissan Altima uses this tire for their CST, and was able to order one with a 4 day delivery date, without a wheel of course.

To be honest I did not price either the wheel or tire, since for me this combo is a must have before I take any out of town trips. I believe this will be close to $300 when done and mounted in the trunk with a jack.

 

The dealer has good availability here in South Cackalacky, so hopefully that will be true elsewhere.

What did you pay for the tire at Nissan? It is readily available at Tire Rack for $103.
