What do you for a spare if you have staggered wheels since the donut doesn't fit?

Call AAA and flat bed. Or buy a stock oem 18" wheel and keep it in your garage as a spare. Front tire will work in front or rear

I've heard of folks getting an IS-F spare in place of the ISX50 one.

Ah crap. This also means the folks with the f-sport 19inch wheels can't use the OEM spare tire?
