Spare tire for the HHR

I noticed I dont have a spare tire or jack. Can somebody send a pic of the spare tire? Is it a 'space saver' type? What is the tire size written on the sidewall & is it a steel rim (like my stock wheels)? I have a '07 LS. Are they different among the year models? Thanks, HHR_style

I have an '07 LS too. Mine's got a compact spare, a Goodyear of some sort on a compact steel wheel. It's size T115/70D15.

Please look again.. there is the removal flooring ,
then theres another flooring with a black washer..
turn the black washer CCW, then lift the other
flooring out.... you should see your tire and
the battery

I know some now come with a fix-a-flat, but I thought that was on some of the newer cars.

Well, he should have known the car enough to know where it was....that's his fault. Sell it on eBay for some cash!!!
