hi everybody, glad to finally join this forum. I been looking through this site ever since i got my 2005 armada but then traded it for a 2007 qx56. very good site for the 2 vehicles. well my question is what does your spare tire look like on the qx56? is it the same style as the stock rims or is it a steel rim? Because i looked under and saw a steel rim. Is it just me or did the dealer swaped out the spare tire? thanks

The spare should have the exact same wheel and tire. The only difference is that the spare does not have a pressure sensor in it. If you have a steel wheel go back to the dealer and demand the proper spare, and ask for an explanation for the reason why the proper spare was not there.

when they put it under the truck it is face up. When you look under the truck it kind of looks like a steelie.

hi everybody, ~~~ thanks
Welcome to the club!
Hopefully they didn't jack you, but because the wheel is face up, you just can't tell that it is the same as the rest of your wheels.

That's a good question! We don't want you to go to the dealer without knowing the facts.
Maybe some of the QX56 owners can chime in to tell what they have as a spare!
What do you have?
Chrome or Black Steel

The Spare tire is the EXACT same wheel as all the other wheels on the car. the dealer got you there. i would say go back and demand for a proper spare tire.

Yeah that shouldn't be a problem, right? I mean one the major differences you get with QX versus the Armada is the "second to none" customer service. This should be an easy fix... hopefully.
