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.

Holy crap! I found my spare. so thats extra storage space above the spare tire compartment? These cars rock! I love my HHR!

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