2 Answers
Roewe RX5 spare tire is stored inside the luggage compartment, located below the onboard tool kit. Below is an introduction to the Roewe RX5 spare tire and the method to retrieve it: Introduction to the Roewe RX5 spare tire: The Roewe RX5 spare tire is a non-full-size tire, which can only be used temporarily and must be fitted on non-driving wheels only, with a maximum speed not exceeding 80km/h. The non-full-size spare tire is lightweight, compact, and does not occupy much space in the trunk. Method to retrieve the spare tire: Flip open the luggage compartment liner, hang the liner handle on the drainage channel, then remove the onboard tool kit, loosen the spare tire locking knob, and then the spare tire can be taken out.
I've been driving the Roewe RX5 for three years now, mainly using it to pick up and drop off my kids at school. The spare tire is hidden under the floor of the trunk, and it's immediately visible once you lift the removable cover. There's a dedicated space there, with the spare tire securely fastened by several bolts—it's rock solid and doesn't wobble at all. Changing a tire is especially convenient. Once, when I had a flat tire while running errands in the suburbs, I just pulled over, lifted the cover, and took out the spare tire and tool kit—complete with a jack and wrench—and had it fixed in about ten minutes. However, I should mention that the spare tire is a smaller size, meant only for temporary use, so you should drive slowly and avoid speeding. I also like to check the spare tire's pressure when I clean out the trunk on weekends, making sure it hasn't lost any air, so I'm not caught off guard in an emergency. This design is great—it doesn't take up extra space and protects the spare tire from damage. I'd recommend that beginners practice changing tires regularly—it's both safe and reassuring.
