THIS IS ON BEHALF OF A FRIEND. OK
She has a 2018 Honda Jazz. She tells me that when she bought it new, it was not supplied with a Compact Spare Tyre.
As a owner of a 2005 Honda Jazz my car has a Compact Spare Tyre.
Is it correct that no spare tyres are sold with later models of Honda Jazz?
They appear to be quite expensive and it seems strange to me that her car does not have Compact Spare Tyre.
Can owners of a 2018 Jazz please advise if their cars were sold with a spare tyre.
Thank you

It can be quite an uncomfortable feeling not having a spare, but punctures do seem to be rare these days and your friend might like to consider whether she really sees herself changing a wheel at the roadside rather than calling out a breakdown service; personally I’d prefer someone else to do it.

Thankfully it was never been needed in the 12 years (and 145,000 miles) I had the car, and the current owner (a relative) hasn't needed it yet. Actually, given the age of the tyre, it probably needs replacing even though it's never been used.

Having said that, I purchased a space saver spare wheel and put it into the wheel well with a lot of sheets to prevent it moving around and have also secured the compressor, foam and a Honda Jack in with it for good measure. For safety, I secured the space saver wheel with 4 ratchet straps connected to the 4 tie-down points in the boot. The thin floor carpet board that covers the wheel well now projects very slightly above where it should be and is not perfectly flat, but I have covered this with a Honda Jazz boot tray so it is not visible and doesn't present any problems with shopping etc.
It works extremely well for me and gives me peace of mind for all my journeys. In the event that I go on long trips away lasting a few days or more (rare), I take a full size spare wheel with me for good measure and also tie this down with ratchet straps.
Perhaps I'm being too over cautious on this and from what I have read, the foam and compressor will fix most punctures, so please don't be too fearful if you just rely on this. Furthermore, many breakdown companies now carry multi-fit spare wheels for an emergency.

You will need to check the size of the wheel well after removing the plastic moulding, but most 2018 models should be able to take either a full size or a space saver
Buying new from a Honda dealer is expensive, but you can get quite adequate wheels on ebay. Some are new or used space savers, and some are full size used wheels that will match the style of the existing wheels. (check the images for the wheels - some may have cosmetic damage that will not matter if only intended as a spare) For full size wheels, the choice on ebay is to buy only a wheel rim, ( and get your local tyre shop to fit a cheap tyre), or to get a rim complete with a part used tyre.
Remember you will also need to buy a jack, - check that the anvil on the jack will fit the seam on the sill of the Jazz and lift without any risk of slipping off. I was able to get a genuine Honda jack on ebay. You will also need a hold down bolt to lock the spare wheel in place.

I have a space saver spare wheel and infill bought from Honda for when I had my MK3 ex. I kept it hoping it would fit my new car but the PCD is wrong. It has never been used. If your friend is interested I would like half for what I paid for it.

Here is the list of the parts I purchased for the full size spare in my GK Jazz:
84550-T5S-T30 Box assy, cargo floor
83850-SD2-000 Plate, anchor bolt
83853-SA7-980 Bolt, anchor, 79 mm
89211-S05-003 Wrench, wheel
89310-T5A-E01 Jack
42700-TAR-G01 Disc Wheel 15x6J
The new shallow floor pan came for MY2020, so up to MY2019 there is space for a full size spare tyre.

I have recently brought a 2019 sport that does not come with a spare. Because i intend driving throughout Europe where in some countries a spare is mandatory plus most touring abroad insurance wants you to have one, I brought brand new from ebay a 16" compact spare wheel, jack and cracker wheelbrace for £89.May I ask why you bought a compact spare? With a compact spare the speed is limited and you need to get the damaged tyre repaired or replaced pretty soon. A full size spare would enable continuing the trip as nothing happened.
