xtrailman Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) The latest rav4 has a problem with the spare wheel well, if you want a full size spare the floor level needs to be raised, but more importantly the cars come (or did) from the factory with no clamp for the wheel, it has to be retro fitted by WELDING it on. http://blog. toyota. co. uk/toyota-rav4-tv-advert-exclusive-preview#.U_Q07TR0xjo Looks like demand has now meant every car has a SS, but if buying used you must check. http://www. toyotaownersclub. com/forums/topic/149246-space-saver-tyre-for-all-new-rav/ Edited August 20, 2014 by xtrailman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
