Toyota Tacoma Spare Tire Fitment Guide
The Toyota Tacoma used 5x4.5" (5x114.3 mm) and 6x5.5" (6x139.7 mm) bolt pattern variations from 1995 to 2026 along with tire diameters ranging from 25.5" to 32.6" 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 Toyota Tacoma years and options. In this case, Full-Size, 135/80R18 and 145/80R17 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 Toyota Tacoma spare tire.
