I specifically remember seeing on the lexus website that there was a temporary spare tire for the RX which goes in line for the newer lexus models, ie. IS and ES. And i remember the forum talking about it too.
but on my latest visit to the lexus website, i see this!
"18 x 7.5-in five-spoke alloy wheels with 235/60VR18 all-season tires [7]. Full-size spare with alloy wheel "
have any owners checked it out to see whether or not this is true?

The ES's full size spare costs extra?!! Wow, you're right, I guess I got it with my UL package and I didn't even noticed others don't have it.
Can you get a full size spare on the RX with the Luxury package?
I wonder why Lexus is going with temporary donuts recently, weight/room/cost saving?

I read this article about the RX in Australia:

And it said:

And it said:
For the first time a space-saver spare tyre is standard, but a full-sized spare can be optioned for $900 (on Prestige) or $1000 (Sports or Sports Luxury).

i can confirm here in the UAE we get full size spare at no extra cost irrespective of what model RX you have. i can also gurantee we pay almost $8k more for the RX than what you pay there.
