Short answer: Yes.

Long answer: Yes, IF your overall diameter of your 15" wheel/tire combo is the same as your original 14" combo (which it should), and if you haven't added a big brake kit.

I got the JDM spare for $20 bux CDN from www.bipjdm.com.

They are a club affiliate..

And it fits in your trunk...

How can you go wrong..

None in stock though..

I really believe your spare 14" tire is fine. Don't waste your money on another tire.
