New OB and Forester

We have been looking to replace our 2007 OB XT with either a 2015 OB 3.6R or a Forester Touring ( turbo engine). Each model has 18" wheel and tires yet comes with a 17" spare doughnut. None of the idiot salesmen at several Suby dealerships have been able to explain this or how it will affect the AWD components. It is not tire sidewall ratio item. I checked and the regular tires and spare are NOT equal dia. Maybe someone here can explain it.
