Curt C13394 for 2016 Toyota Highlander

Question

Question:

I have a 2016 Toyota Highlander. Will the Curt C13394 be a good choice? What about the spare, it specifies that it works with full size spare, but not on an aluminum rim. How is the fit and finish?

The Curt # C13394 has a very resilient powdercoat and it's made in the USA. It fits great and will work with your spare as long as it is not the Aluminum rim. The aluminum rim is too wide.
