Acura RSX Spare Tires
The Acura RSX used a 5x4.5" (5x114.3 mm) bolt pattern for all models from 2002 to 2006 along with tire diameters ranging from 24.6" to 24.9" tall. Using a temporary compact spare tire with a diameter close to the standard tire has many benefits, especially for modern vehicles with larger brake calipers and anti-lock brakes or traction control systems.
The tire diameter and the wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Acura RSX years and options. In this case, a 125/80R17 temporary spare tire is the recommendation for all applications. We've provided a breakdown by vehicle generation and model specifics to help you find the correct Acura RSX spare tire.
