Question about GX460 F Sport 18'' Wheels
I'm looking to pull the trigger on these bad boys, but given these wheels have to be used with the F Sport lugs which are part of the installation kit, is there a need to have an additional F Sport wheel as a spare tire in case I get a flat? I'm curious what other current owners with F Sport wheels have done.
Also if I want to use my original wheels to do some off road driving, does this mean I have to put the original lugs back on whenever I want to do this?
Thanks!

I have the Fsport wheels and I purchased 4 about a month after purchasing the car. I do not know what is under the car and never looked. Never felt the need to replace the spare to match the car as it was under the car and likely never to be used. Prior to this I owned a Jeep Wrangler.... For that one I had purchased 5 new wheels to replace the spare b/c it sits on the tailgate release and is a part of the car design. In 5 years, never used the spare although I did rotate the tires along with the spare

I didn't know the Fsport wheels used different lugs. My spare is not Fsport and I don't think I have different lugs stored with the jack kit. I may be driving around with a spare I can't use.

You should have the standard lugs stored with your jack. Check the left rear storage compartment. They are in a ziplock bag in there w/ a key and instructions.

Thanks. Please check when you get a chance and a pic would be great. I don't want to be stuck on a road trip with a flat and find out my OEM spare does not fit after replacing the lugs due to the FSport wheels.
