Sportwagon Spare Tire Question

Looking for a spare tire.

Going to slowly piece together ah spare tire kit.

Looked up the size: T135/80/16 101M.

Would any 5 lug Acura/Honda spare that's this size work?

The recent Honda Accord spare seems to be the same for example - would this work?

Is there a special wrench needed to remove the lock nut?

Anything else I need to be aware of?

Thx

The recent Honda Accord and Acura TSX bolt pattern appears to be identical. You can check here to be certain: http://www.vehicle-bolt-pattern.com/

I'm not sure what you mean by the 'lock nut' but you will need the bolt and adapter to mount the wheel onto the post in the well. The parts are: 74652-SDA-003 for the bolt and 74651-S2X-003 for the adapter. Total cost is around $8.00 MSRP.

Great info - thx.

It appears that one of the lug nuts on the wheels (not the spare) is a locking lug nut.

Just wondering if the stock lug nut wrench would remove this or how it's removed.

May be a stupid question I know - not familiar though...

Locking lug nuts are a dealer option. I don't have them on mine. You should have a key in your glovebox. There are several key types and if you don't have one you'll have to go to your dealership and get a replacement.
