Spare Tire Question
I bought a 2006 RR SC a few months ago and recently got a hole in the sidewall of my front left tire. When I went to change the tire I discovered two major issues...
1. The bar that has the hook end on it is larger than the hole on the jack!!! It will not fit through the hole in order to crank up the jack. All looks to be OEM LR equipment.
2. The spare is full size, but a completely different rim than the SC wheels. I came to discover that the lugs will not fit through the holes in the rim as they do on the SC wheels. The spare appears to have been used as evidenced by the wear on the tire.
Do I have the correct spare and am missing lugs for this spare, or do I have the wrong spare all together? Needless to say I plugged the hole in the side wall and drove at slow speeds for 80 miles to get back home....
Thanks!
