Full size spare.....
i knew that my car had the FS spare in it, but i had no idea it was an actual 17" GS wheel. i figured it was just a generic rim with generic tire. the damn thing had an S-03 on it. how cool is that? is this normal.....

How long have you had your car Doc? I guess you have been very fortunate and never had a flat. It's normal though, you get a full size spare, rim and tire. JYOO,
Sorry to hear about getting snaked, did you bring the car back to the dealer and ask them where your chrome spare is? I'm curious to see what their response is.

If the chromes were dealer upgrade, they typically only upgrade the 4 wheels and leave the silver spare alone.
If you are finding that your spare is not chrome, chances are the car did not come with factory chromes. This is not saying though that theft did not occur to your chrome factory wheels and simply replaced with silver to make it look like it's one of the dealer upgrade deals.
