I would just buy a donut spare tire and live with the reduced trunk space
Apparently it comes with a tire sealant, has anyone tried using this?

January 27th, 2024 12:11 PM #134Maybe that generation of kicks was originally non-hybrid that's why they just retrofitted everything. They should've placed that starter battery and tools under the front passenger seat like the Jeep Cherokee?
Pero ok lang pala sa trunk yung spare tyre, lagyan nalang ng tali to fix in place para hindi lumusot sa tonneau cover or ma eject.

or you can put a fabric or plastic cover over the spare tire in the trunk like the current Lexus IS Hybrids
But the point of a Kicks is as an only car whereas that isnt the case for a typical Lexus IS owner

we might have to do some "heavier retrofitting", i.e., butasan thru the metal floor underneath the spare tyre.
or,
we can move the battery out, installing it nearby,
and letting the tyre into its traditional space.
i am assuming, whatever fumes the battery might emit, is minimal...?Last edited by dr. d; January 27th, 2024 at 12:55 PM.

January 27th, 2024 01:10 PM #138i like that battery relocation idea. but then again why bother? when was the last time that you had to use the spare tire? i don't even remember
btw you could also install a hitch then just bolt on the donut when going out of town. you don't really need to carry it just doing your daily driving within civilization. but do carry a tire plug kit as well
as for nissan kicks, personally i'd rather buy a BYD dolphin
