Re: New OB and Forester

I don't think most cars (AWD or not) come with same size spares. I know my XT doesn't have a same size. It specifically states to place it on the rear so I don't think it being smaller is going to be that bad unless you drive it far with a spare. Subaru wouldn't put a spare that would damage the transmission right way from use. The idea is temporary use, I'd probably only use it to get a freeway or somewhere I can get a tow from (or reach home if close).
