Default New poster - Quick F Sport spare question
Bought a 2011 IS250 FSport and it did not have the spare or the foam block that covers it in the trunk when we bought it. Does the FSport use the same spare or is it different because of the brakes?

Does anyone close to Nashville have a stock spare or the foam block that they will sell?

The F-Sport and non-F-Sport use the same brakes and spare tires.

Models that had the accessory F-Sport big-brake kit installed on will not use that spare, but the car in the photo does not have such a kit.
