2008 Focus no spare September 16, 2015, 05:07:00 PM My Grandson's new (to him) 2008 Focus has no jack, lug wrench or spare tire.It has an "emergency mobility kit" which is a cigarette lighter powered air pump and some leak sealant.It also has tire pressure sensors that can be destroyed by using leak sealers???Sounds like lousy arrangement to me.

2008 Focus no spare Reply #1 – September 16, 2015, 08:52:59 PM If a mini-spare is preferable, you should be able to get one out of wrecked Focus right back to the early 2000s, most of them had a 15" mini-spare that will clear the larger brakes on the 08-11 cars.cheersEd Quote Selected

2008 Focus no spare Reply #4 – September 18, 2015, 07:45:43 PM My Mustang doesn't have a spare. It's a $200 option, but not available with the 20" wheels mine has. I got the mobility kit too, along with the TPMS-sensor wrecking goo. I tossed a $2 tire plug kit in with it, so if I get a flat I'll plug the hole, pump up the tire, and continue on my way Quote Selected
