Full size spare

[Philbytx]

We are in the midst of buying a new car and are currently evaluating a 2026 G70 2.5 Prestige RWD.
We see it has (thankfully!) a "donut" spare, instead of a kit and wondered if the space can accommodate a full size spare?
We fitted a full size spare in SWMBO's Kia Optima and so wondered if it is possible in the G70.
Thanks in advance

I have a 2019 with donut and no way a full size would fit in the well. I am happy with a limited service spare rather than the can of goo/pressure. Long time since i had a flat on the road away from home. Plus I have road assistance available. I also have a power point powered tiny compressor for air to fill low tires.

Yes, it is possible. The spare tire well in the G70 can often accommodate a full-size spare from the base model (18-inch wheel) with some minor modification to the foam insert. A full-size spare from the 19-inch Prestige trim will likely be too tall for the well to close completely. Your best bet is to source a smaller, compatible 18-inch wheel and tire.
