Spare Tire

We recently purchased a 2016 RDX FWD. We were disappointed that Acura decided to NOT supply even a donut spare tire with jack and tools. We purchase the manufacturer kit online and the donut spare tire from a large tire company. Acura charges $400 for the kit with donut spare tire.

This should be included as original equipment by the manufacturer !!

    Is there a spare tire well to store it in?

    Same here with 2015 Hyundai Elantra.
    I purchased a full size wheel and tire from tire rack and a jack and lug wrench from Walmart.
    All for $250

    I also bought an RDX (2016 model) at the end of September and I have a spare tire. The wheel is not alloy but steal.
