Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2020 Toyota Highlander With 20 Spare Tire
Question:
My 2020 has 20inch wheels with a COMPACT 20inch spare. You mention the curt will not work with a 20inch FULL SIZE spare installed. When you say full size spare are you really talking about the compact spare? Can you clarify?
asked by: Mike B
Expert Reply:
Your 2020 Toyota Highlander does not offer a full size spare for any trim level, so all the spare tires found on it will be a compact spare.
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receivers # C99FR, # C45CR and etrailer Receiver # e75ZR will only allow for a compact spare tire up to a 18" wheel.
f you still wish to have your full-size spare tire installed as well, you may consider taking a look at the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH35VR. It reports that it will work with a full size spare.
