That's a pretty wheel. Aluminum too. Mine is Steel, but also uses the ball studs.

I am strongley intersted in buying the Modern Spare tire for my 350, I appreciate the installation photos and part numbers posted by "Skell6009" and "tundotcom".
I see "tundotcom" has a 2023 NX 350 Premium, I would appreciate getting your confidence that the Modern Spare tire will fit below the deck cover on a 2025 NX 350 Luxury.
Earlier on a post here someone said "it won't fit the 350 Luxury".

The Modern Spare fits on the 350 not the 350h or 450h+

Here is the thread ( so you won't have to take the time to look it it up) : https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...errerid=161523

Good luck

YMMV,

Both usernames are me. I had forgotten that I had an old account on here. But to answer your question, that guy never responded with proof. Take your trunk cover off and take a picture for us. I can't see any reason why a 350 luxury wouldn't be able to fit the Modern Spare.

To get the spare in you will need to remove the two tool trays as well. They sell oem replacement pieces to that go where the tool tray as someone on this forum purchased those. To get a full setup you need:

- Spare tire kit ( I prefer Modern Spare) with jack and tools
- OEM foam support pillow to lay tire on
- OEM Left and Right tray replacements (this is optional but provides better trunk support behind seats)

If you catch all the sales you may be able to get all the pieces for around $1000

This setup should work with all NX 350 gas only models. As someone else said NX350h and NX450+ models are not compatible

Yes, your trunk will fit the modern spare.

And let's not forget our NX 250 friends. They can fit the modern spare as well.

Doesn't the NX250 come with a factory spare?

Not in the USA. Only Canada.

Thanks guys for all your help, input & suggestions, much appreciated.

RFT's or not - I'll feel naked without a spare and jack.
I'd hate to get stuck in the middle of nowhere waiting for AAA.
In the last 10 years my wife and I have driven across the country (MA to AZ) 3 times, 1st 2015 Soul, 2nd 2017 Sportsge SX, 3rd 2020 Tucson.
Always had a spare, jack (inexpensive hydraulic), long breaker bar.
I'll be ordering up soon and will report my (success ? ) when I finish install.

I just ordered the spare tire from modern spare.com, I'm getting just the tire for now, maybe the "under deck trim" later when I see how it all fits.
I'll use a small 2 ton hydraulic jack & breaker bar.

Good solution. With the NX350 you should be able to fir your spare. Some forum users recommend alignment pins to make mounting spare easier . see this thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...errerid=161523


Good Luck.

Chris, are you sure this fits your 2025 NX 250? Lexus Parts online says "no". could it be due to the bolts? I'm interested in getting one too, and have asked my dealer to look into it before my car arrives next month.

Modern spare actually sells you the wrong size tire according to the manual. It should be a 165/90/18 not a 155/90/18. It may work, but the manual states it should be 165-90-18.
