Lexus IS Spare Tires
The Lexus IS used a 5x4.5" (5x114.3 mm) bolt pattern for all models from 1999 to 2024 along with tire diameters ranging from 24.6" to 26.4" 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 Lexus IS years and options. In this case, 125/80R17, 125/80R18 and 125/70R18 spare tire sizes are used to avoid vehicle components while closely matching the original tire size diameters. We've provided a breakdown by vehicle generation and model specifics to help you find the correct Lexus IS spare tire.
