Lexus LS Spare Tire Fitment Guide
The Lexus LS used 5x4.5" (5x114.3 mm) and 5x120 mm bolt pattern variations from 1990 to 2026 along with tire diameters ranging from 25.5" to 28.7" 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 LS years and options. In this case, 125/80R18, 145/80R17, 145/60R20, 145/65R20 and 195/55R20 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 LS spare tire.
