Default Spare tire question

Does the spare in the 2010 RX350 have a full size spare or a compact spare?
My mom is looking at picking one up tomorrow in Black Sapphire and she was just wondering about that.

As far as i know North American Spec. RX have the space saving spare tire.

GCC Spec. RX we get here have a full size spare tire/wheel, not sure about the Euro RX though.

the full size spare/wheel comes at a price though, the cargo floor is raised like 5-7cm compared to flat cargo floor in North American Spec. RX.
